The enzymology of the process is discussed, followed by studies on DSB repair in living cells, and a historical context for the current view of HR is provided and how DSBs are processed during HR as well as interactions with other D SB repair pathways are described.
Abstract
In this review, we discuss the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) using a homologous DNA sequence (i.e., homologous recombination [HR]), focusing mainly on yeast and mammals. We provide a historical context for the current view of HR and describe how DSBs are processed during HR as well as interactions with other DSB repair pathways. We discuss the enzymology of the process, followed by studies on DSB repair in living cells. Whenever possible, we cite both original articles and reviews to aid the reader for further studies.

Regulation of resection by chromatin associated proteins

TL;DR: A new role of RAD 51 paralogs is described, independent of RAD51, in earlier steps of DSB repair than those described helping RAD51 in recombination, which seems to hamper the recruitment of NHEJ machinery to resected DNA to promote the HR pathway.

CtIP -mediated alternative mRNA splicing finetunes the DNA damage response

TL;DR: It is shown that both the splicing factor SF3B2 and the repair protein CtIP contribute to the global pattern of splicing both in cells treated or not to DNA damaging agents.

Divergent binding mode for a protozoan BRC repeat to RAD51

- 23 May 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the authors studied the interaction of BRC repeats in other species, especially in protozoans, where variable number of bRC repeats are found in BRCA2 proteins and determined the crystal structure of its complex with LiRAD51.

ATM (ataxia telangiectasia mutated)

TL;DR: Review on ATM, with data on DNA, on the protein encoded, and where the gene is implicated, and how to identify the genes implicated.

Homologous recombination: a Swiss Army knife for protecting genome integrity

TL;DR: It is shown that HR proteins are important to repair damage at telomeres, thereby preventing accelerated cellular ageing and quantified HR activity genome-wide by measuring and mapping HR events known as sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs).

A programmable dual-RNA-guided DNA endonuclease in adaptive bacterial immunity.

TL;DR: This study reveals a family of endonucleases that use dual-RNAs for site-specific DNA cleavage and highlights the potential to exploit the system for RNA-programmable genome editing.

Multiplex Genome Engineering Using CRISPR/Cas Systems

TL;DR: The type II prokaryotic CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas adaptive immune system has been shown to facilitate RNA-guided site-specific DNA cleavage as discussed by the authors.

Multiplex Genome Engineering Using CRISPR/Cas Systems

TL;DR: Two different type II CRISPR/Cas systems are engineered and it is demonstrated that Cas9 nucleases can be directed by short RNAs to induce precise cleavage at endogenous genomic loci in human and mouse cells, demonstrating easy programmability and wide applicability of the RNA-guided nuclease technology.

Efficient genome editing in zebrafish using a CRISPR-Cas system

TL;DR: It is shown that the CRISPR-Cas system functions in vivo to induce targeted genetic modifications in zebrafish embryos with efficiencies similar to those obtained using zinc finger nucleases and transcription activator-like effector nucleases.
