TLDR
This review focuses mainly on the results obtained in budding yeast on the multiple roles of checkpoints in maintaining fork integrity and on the enzymatic activities that cooperate with the checkpoint pathway to promote fork resumption and repair of DNA lesions thereby contributing to genome integrity.

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Esc2 and Smc5-6 Proteins Promote Sister Chromatid Junction-mediated Intra-S Repair

TL;DR: The data suggest that Esc2 and Smc5-6 act in concert with Sgs1 to prevent the accumulation of recombinogenic structures at damaged replication forks, likely by integrating sumoylation activities to regulate the repair pathways in response to damaged DNA.

Replication fork reversal after replication-transcription collision.

TL;DR: The results suggest that replication fork reversal occurs after replication–transcription head-on collision, and it is proposed that it promotes the action of the accessory replicative helicases that dislodge the obstacle.

The carboxyl terminus of Brca2 links the disassembly of Rad51 complexes to mitotic entry.

TL;DR: It is concluded that Rad51 binding by the C-terminal Brca2 motif is dispensable for the execution of HR but instead links the disassembly of Rad51 complexes to mitotic entry, which may ensure that HR terminates before chromosome segregation.

Combinatorial Regulation of Meiotic Holliday Junction Resolution in C. elegans by HIM-6 (BLM) Helicase, SLX-4, and the SLX-1, MUS-81 and XPF-1 Nucleases

TL;DR: Real time imaging revealed extensive chromatin bridges during the first meiotic division that appear to be eventually resolved in meiosis II, suggesting back-up resolution activities acting at or after anaphase I, and shows that in HJ resolution mutants, the restructuring of chromosome arms distal and proximal to the CO still occurs, suggesting that CO initiation but not resolution is likely to be required for this process.

RAD6 -dependent DNA repair is linked to modification of PCNA by ubiquitin and SUMO

TL;DR: It is shown that UBC9, a small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO)-conjugating enzyme, is also affiliated with this pathway and that proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a substrate, and that damage-induced PCNA ubiquitination is elementary for DNA repair and occurs at the same conserved residue in yeast and humans.

Multiple Pathways of Recombination Induced by Double-Strand Breaks in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

TL;DR: This review encompasses different aspects of DSB-induced recombination in Saccharomyces and attempts to relate genetic, molecular biological, and biochemical studies of the processes of DNA repair and recombination.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Bloom's syndrome helicase suppresses crossing over during homologous recombination

TL;DR: It is shown that mutations in BLM and hTOPO IIIα together effect the resolution of a recombination intermediate containing a double Holliday junction and prevents exchange of flanking sequences, which has wider implications for the understanding of the process of homologous recombination and the mechanisms that exist to prevent tumorigenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Choreography of the DNA damage response: Spatiotemporal relationships among checkpoint and repair proteins

TL;DR: The cellular response to DSBs and DNA replication stress is likely directed by the Mre11 complex detecting and processing DNA ends in conjunction with Sae2 and by RP-A recognizing single-stranded DNA and recruiting additional checkpoint and repair proteins.

Replication Dynamics of the Yeast Genome

TL;DR: Oligonucleotide microarrays were used to map the detailed topography of chromosome replication in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, finding the two ends of each of the 16 chromosomes are highly correlated in their times of replication.
