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.

Optimization of AAV6 transduction enhances site-specific genome editing of primary human lymphocytes.

TL;DR: In this paper, an optimized protocol for genome editing of human lymphocytes based on a short, highly concentrated AAV6 transduction in the absence of serum, followed by electroporation with a targeted nuclease was proposed.

Discrete roles for Rad54 and Rdh54 during homologous recombination.

TL;DR: Rad54 and Rdh54 are Snf2 DNA motor proteins that function during maintenance of genomic integrity as mentioned in this paper, and have been shown to play a major role in DNA repair.

Homologous recombination factors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss factors that influence or regulate homologous recombination, methods to monitor these factors, and the use of these factors to screen for agents that modulate recombination.

ALC1/eIF4A1-mediated regulation of CtIP mRNA stability controls DNA end resection.

TL;DR: It is found that ALC1 affects resection independently of chromatin remodeling activity or its ability to bind damaged chromatin, and cooperates with the RNA-helicase eIF4A1 to help stabilize the most abundant splicing form of CtIP mRNA.

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.
