Homologous Recombination—Enzymes and Pathways
EcoSal Plus, 2012Homologous recombination is an ubiquitous process that shapes genomes and repairs DNA damage. The reaction is classically divided into three phases: presynaptic, synaptic, and postsynaptic. In Escherichia coli , the presynaptic phase involves either RecBCD or RecFOR proteins, which act on DNA double-stranded ends ...

Biochemistry of eukaryotic homologous recombination
2006The biochemistry of eukaryotic homologous recombination caught fire with the discovery that Rad51 is the eukaryotic homolog of the bacterial RecA and T4 UvsX proteins; and this field is still hot. The core reaction of homologous recombination, homology search and DNA strand invasion, along with the proteins catalyzing it, are conserved throughout ...

Homologous Recombination in Mammals
2012Homologous recombination (HR) is a fundamental process that is conserved in all species and is essential for maintaining genome stability while facilitating genetic diversity but avoiding genetic instability. As such, HR is involved in numerous fundamental biological processes, controlling a balance of genetic stability/diversity instability.

Gene Replacement by Homologous Recombination
2019While homologous recombination-based gene replacement is about to be supplanted by more modern approaches, it is still retaining usefulness for genes that prove to be poor targets for CRISPR/cas-based approaches. Homologous recombination has proven to be relatively robust to minor sequence mismatches between GOI-flanking sequences and the gene ...

Homologous recombination as a mechanism of carcinogenesis
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Reviews on Cancer, 2001Cancer develops when cells no longer follow their normal pattern of controlled growth. In the absence or disregard of such regulation, resulting from changes in their genetic makeup, these errant cells acquire a growth advantage, expanding into pre-cancerous clones.

Mechanism of Homologous Recombination
2016Homologous recombination (HR) maintains genome stability by repairing DNA double-strand breaks and gaps and restarting replication forks. It is an error-free pathway that uses a homologous sequence in the genome to copy the damaged genetic information.

Involvement of Homologous Recombination in Carcinogenesis
2007DNA alterations of every type are associated with the incidence of carcinogenesis, often on the genomic scale. Although homologous recombination (HR) is an important pathway of DNA repair, evidence is accumulating that deleterious genomic rearrangements can result from HR. It therefore follows that HR events may play a causative role in carcinogenesis.

Homologous Recombination in Plants: An Antireview
2010Homologous recombination (HR) is a central cellular process involved in many aspects of genome maintenance such as DNA repair, replication, telomere maintenance, and meiotic chromosomal segregation. HR is highly conserved among eukaryotes, contributing to genome stability as well as to the generation of genetic diversity.

HOMOLOGOUS RECOMBINATION IN MAMMALIAN CELLS
Annual Review of Genetics, 1989This review focuses on three approaches used to study recombination mediated by cellular functions: (a) extrachromosomal recombination between transfected DNA molecules; (b) chromosomal recombination between repeated genes stably incorporated in the genome; and (c) targeted recombination between introduced DNA molecules and homologous sequences in the ...
