Homologous recombination deficiency in ovarian cancer: a review of its epidemiology and management

Clinics, 2018
Ovarian cancer patients with homologous recombination deficiencies exhibit specific clinical behaviors, and improved responses to treatments, such as platinum-based chemotherapy and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, have been observed ...

Homologous recombination risk in baculovirus expression vector system

Virus Research, 2022
The baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS) is widely used for producing recombinant proteins. To achieve high expression level of recombinant proteins, baculoviral elements, such as enhancers, promoters, signal peptide coding sequences and 3′-UTR ...

Multi-scale characterisation of homologous recombination deficiency in breast cancer

Genome Medicine, 2023
Background Homologous recombination is a robust, broadly error-free mechanism of double-strand break repair, and deficiencies lead to PARP inhibitor sensitivity.

The histone modification reader ZCWPW1 promotes double-strand break repair by regulating cross-talk of histone modifications and chromatin accessibility at meiotic hotspots

Genome Biology, 2022
Background The PRDM9-dependent histone methylation H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 function in assuring accurate homologous recombination at recombination hotspots in mammals.

BRCA2 and homologous recombination [PDF]

Breast Cancer Research, 2001
Two recent papers provide new evidence relevant to the role of the breast cancer susceptibility gene BRCA2 in DNA repair. Moynahan et al provide genetic data indicating a requirement for BRCA2 in homology-dependent (recombinational) repair of DNA double-strand breaks.

Core genes can have higher recombination rates than accessory genes within global microbial populations

eLife, 2022
Recombination is essential to microbial evolution, and is involved in the spread of antibiotic resistance, antigenic variation, and adaptation to the host niche.

Slow Replication Fork Velocity of Homologous Recombination-Defective Cells Results from Endogenous Oxidative Stress. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2016
Replications forks are routinely hindered by different endogenous stresses. Because homologous recombination plays a pivotal role in the reactivation of arrested replication forks, defects in homologous recombination reveal the initial endogenous stress ...

Homologous recombination proficiency in ovarian and breast cancer patients

BMC Cancer, 2021
Homologous recombination and DNA repair are important for genome maintenance. Genetic variations in essential homologous recombination genes, including BRCA1 and BRCA2 results in homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and can be a target for ...

Homologous Recombination: Down to the Wire [PDF]

Current Biology, 2004
Exchange of strands between homologous DNA molecules is catalyzed by evolutionarily conserved recombinases. These proteins can occur in different quaternary arrangements: rings or helical filaments. Recent results reveal that recombinase function follows from the filamentous form.
