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.

Analysis of conventional and alternative CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing to enhance a single-base pair knock-in mutation.

TL;DR: Edmondson et al. as discussed by the authors evaluated a number of CRISPR/Cas9 approaches for deriving cell lines with knock-in base pair edits to create a phosphorylation mutation and provided a breakdown of editing efficiencies and suggestions for improvement.

A metal ion-dependent mechanism of RAD51 nucleoprotein filament disassembly

TL;DR: In this paper , it was shown that the ATP-binding site of the RAD51 NPF contains a second metal ion, which promotes the local folding of RAD51 into the conformation required for DNA binding.

Gene Therapy in Liver Disease: Challenges and Outcomes

TL;DR: Liver-Directed Gene Therapy (LDGT) has been proposed as a means of treating many single-gene inherited disorders as mentioned in this paper , which is used to create genetic pharmacological products that can be used for treatment of liver diseases and liver cancers, by inhibiting the expression of harmful proteins, delivering antisense RNAs, dominant negative proteins and ribozymes.

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.
