Fen-1 facilitates homologous recombination by removing divergent sequences at DNA break ends.
Homologous recombination (HR) requires nuclease activities at multiple steps, but the contribution of individual nucleases to the processing of double-strand DNA ends at different stages of HR has not been clearly defined. We used chicken DT40 cells to investigate the role of flap endonuclease 1 (Fen-1) in HR. FEN-1-deficient cells exhibited a significant decrease in the efficiency of immunoglo...
متن کاملScaffolding protein SPIDR/KIAA0146 connects the Bloom syndrome helicase with homologous recombination repair.
The Bloom syndrome gene product, BLM, is a member of the highly conserved RecQ family. An emerging concept is the BLM helicase collaborates with the homologous recombination (HR) machinery to help avoid undesirable HR events and to achieve a high degree of fidelity during the HR reaction. However, exactly how such coordination occurs in vivo is poorly understood. Here, we identified a protein t...
متن کاملFunctions of homologous DNA recombination
Homologous DNA (or genetic) recombination plays important roles in heredity and evolution. A recent study has shown that a physical linkage established by recombination between two or more homologous DNA regions or molecules is essential for the precise disjunction of homologous chromosomes in meiosis and the recovery of collapsed DNA replication forks. These physical linkages in recombination ...
متن کاملDesigning E1 Deleted Adenoviral Vector by Homologous Recombination
Adenoviruses are used extensively to deliver genes into mammalian cells, particularly where there is a requirement for high-level expression of transgene products in cultured cells, or for use as recombinant viral vaccines or in gene therapy. In spite of their usefulness, the construction of adenoviral vectors (AdV) is a cumbersome and lengthy process that is not readily amenable to the generat...
متن کاملIntrachromosomal recombination between well-separated, homologous sequences in mammalian cells.
In the present study, we investigated intrachromosomal homologous recombination in a murine hybridoma in which the recipient for recombination, the haploid, endogenous chromosomal immunoglobulin mu-gene bearing a mutation in the constant (Cmu) region, was separated from the integrated single copy wild-type donor Cmu region by approximately 1 Mb along the hybridoma chromosome. Homologous recombi...
