53BP1 Inhibits Homologous Recombination in Brca1-Deficient Cells by Blocking Resection of DNA Breaks

TL;DR: It is shown that DNA breaks in Brca1-deficient cells are aberrantly joined into complex chromosome rearrangements by a process dependent on the nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) factors 53BP1 and DNA ligase 4, illustrating that HR and NHEJ compete to process DNA breaks that arise during DNA replication.

53BP1 regulates DNA resection and the choice between classical and alternative end joining during class switch recombination

TL;DR: It is proposed that 53BP1 favors long-range CSR in part by protecting DNA ends against resection, which prevents A-NHEJ–dependent short-range rejoining of intra–switch region DSBs.
