Cell Biology of Homologous Recombination in Yeast [PDF]
Homologous recombination is an important pathway for error-free repair of DNA lesions, such as single- and double-strand breaks, and for rescue of collapsed replication forks. Here, we describe protocols for live cell imaging of single-lesion recombination events in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae using fluorescence microscopy.

Use of a unique reporter cassette to examine 5´ to 3´ resection at a site specific DNA double-strand break during meiosis [PDF]
Meiotic recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is initiated by the formation of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), which are created by Spoil protein.

Telomerase Repairs Collapsed Replication Forks at Telomeres
Summary: Telomeres are difficult-to-replicate sites whereby replication itself may threaten telomere integrity. We investigate, in fission yeast, telomere replication dynamics in telomerase-negative cells to unmask problems associated with telomere ...

Rapid and Efficient Plasmid Construction by Homologous Recombination in Yeast [PDF]
The cloning of DNA fragments is a fundamental aspect of molecular biology. Traditional DNA cloning techniques rely on the ligation of an insert and a linearized plasmid that have been digested with restriction enzymes and the subsequent introduction of the ligated DNA into Escherichia coli for propagation.

Arrested replication forks, when restarted by homologous recombination, result in error-prone DNA syntheses and non-allelic homologous recombination. Fission yeast RTS1 is a model fork barrier used to probe mechanisms of recombination-dependent restart ...

Biochemical properties of fission yeast homologous recombination enzymes
Homologous recombination (HR) is a universal phenomenon conserved from viruses to humans. The mechanisms of HR are essentially the same in humans and simple unicellular eukaryotes like yeast. Two highly diverged yeast species, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe, have proven exceptionally useful in understanding the fundamental ...

Full-length infectious clone of a low passage dengue virus serotype 2 from Brazil [PDF]
Full-length dengue virus (DENV) cDNA clones are an invaluable tool for many studies, including those on the development of attenuated or chimeric vaccines and on host-virus interactions.

Meiotic recombination is a pivotal event that ensures faithful chromosome segregation and creates genetic diversity in gametes. Meiotic recombination is initiated by programmed double-strand breaks (DSBs), which are catalyzed by the conserved Spo11 ...

Mutational Effects of Mobile Introns on the Mitochondrial Genomes of Metschnikowia Yeasts
It has been argued that DNA repair by homologous recombination in the context of endonuclease-mediated cleavage can cause mutations. To better understand this phenomenon, we examined homologous recombination following endonuclease cleavage in a native ...
