Homologous recombination proficiency in ovarian and breast cancer patients
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 ...

Double-strand break repair and homologous recombination in Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]
In recent years our understanding of double strand break repair and homologous recombination in Schizosaccharomyces pombe has increased significantly, and the identification of novel pathways and genes with homologues in higher eukaryotes has increased ...

PALB2 self-interaction controls homologous recombination. [PDF]
PALB2 is essential for BRCA2 anchorage to nuclear structures and for homologous recombinational repair of DNA double-strand breaks. Here, we report that the N-terminal coiled-coil motif of PALB2 regulates its self-association and homologous recombination.

Homologous Recombination as a Replication Fork Escort: Fork-Protection and Recovery
Homologous recombination is a universal mechanism that allows DNA repair and ensures the efficiency of DNA replication. The substrate initiating the process of homologous recombination is a single-stranded DNA that promotes a strand exchange reaction ...

Recombination: Homologous recombination branches out [PDF]
Homologous recombination can be divided into three key steps: strand exchange, branch migration and resolution. The identification of a protein complex that catalyses branch migration and Holliday junction resolution argues that the mechanism of homologous recombination is conserved from bacteria to man.

Arabidopsis RecQl4A suppresses homologous recombination and modulates DNA damage responses [PDF]
The DNA damage response and DNA recombination are two interrelated mechanisms involved in maintaining the integrity of the genome, but in plants they are poorly understood.

Homologous recombination deficiency in ovarian cancer: a review of its epidemiology and management
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 in Negative Sense RNA Viruses
Recombination is an important process that influences biological evolution at many different levels. More and more homologous recombination events have been reported among negative sense RNA viruses recently.

SUMOylation of Rad52-Rad59 synergistically change the outcome of mitotic recombination [PDF]
Homologous recombination (HR) is essential for maintenance of genome stability through double-strand break (DSB) repair, but at the same time HR can lead to loss of heterozygosity and uncontrolled recombination can be genotoxic.

Homologous Recombination under the Single-Molecule Fluorescence Microscope [PDF]
Homologous recombination (HR) is a complex biological process and is central to meiosis and for repair of DNA double-strand breaks. Although the HR process has been the subject of intensive study for more than three decades, the complex protein–protein ...
