Journal Article

Initiation of DNA double strand break repair: signaling and single-stranded resection dictate the choice between homologous recombination, non-homologous end-joining and alternative end-joining

TL;DR: The main DSB repair mechanisms are presented and the importance of the fine tuning of this network for genome stability maintenance and for tumor protection in fine is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

RhoB promotes γH2AX dephosphorylation and DNA double-strand break repair.

TL;DR: It is proposed that DSBs activate a Chk2-HuR-RhoB pathway that promotes PP2A-mediated dephosphorylation of γH2AX and DSB repair, and that RhoB loss increases DSB-mediated genomic instability and tumor progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of the double-strand break repair pathway in the maintenance of genomic stability

TL;DR: The molecular mechanisms involved in HR and NHEJ and the recently described alternative end-joining mechanism, which is exclusively mutagenic, are presented.
