Excess Single-Stranded DNA Inhibits Meiotic Double-Strand Break Repair
During meiosis, self-inflicted DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are created by the protein Spo11 and repaired by homologous recombination leading to gene conversions and crossovers. Crossover formation is vital for the segregation of homologous chromosomes during the first meiotic division and requires the RecA orthologue, Dmc1. We analyzed repair during meiosis of site-specific DSBs created by ...
متن کاملThe study of dose gamma rays of 192Ir source on DNA single strand break (SSB) and DNA double strand break (DSB) in soft tissue phantom
Introduction: Passage of ionizing radiation through the organs of living creatures develops clusters of damaged nucleotides inside the DNA rounds. 192Ir Gamma source is one of the most widely used sources in brachytherapy of cervical and prostate cancer. Thus, in this research, we investigated the flux of photons and its resulting secondary electrons, the single-strand break (S...
متن کاملHomology requirements for double-strand break-mediated recombination in a phage lambda-td intron model system.
Many group I introns encode endonucleases that promote intron homing by initiating a double-strand break-mediated homologous recombination event. A td intron-phage lambda model system was developed to analyze exon homology effects on intron homing and determine the role of the lambda 5'-3' exonuclease complex (Red alpha beta) in the repair event. Efficient intron homing depended on exon lengths...
متن کاملGenome-wide detection of meiotic DNA double-strand break hotspots using single-stranded DNA.
The controlled fragmentation of chromosomes by DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) initiates meiotic recombination, which is essential for meiotic chromosome segregation in most eukaryotes. This chapter describes a straightforward microarray-based approach to measure the genome-wide distribution of meiotic DSBs by detecting the single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) that transiently accumulates at DSB sites d...
متن کاملMapping of Meiotic Single-Stranded DNA Reveals Double-Strand-Break Hotspots near Centromeres and Telomeres
BACKGROUND Every chromosome requires at least one crossover to be faithfully segregated during meiosis. At least two levels of regulation govern crossover distribution: where the initiating DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) occur and whether those DSBs are repaired as crossovers. RESULTS We mapped meiotic DSBs in budding yeast by identifying sites of DSB-associated single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) a...
