Repair of Large Insertion/Deletion Heterologies in Human Nuclear Extracts Is Directed by a 5′ Single-strand Break and Is Independent of the Mismatch Repair System
1 Mar 1999
Abstract excerpt
The repair of 12-, 27-, 62-, and 216-nucleotide unpaired insertion/deletion heterologies has been demonstrated in nuclear extracts of human cells. When present in covalently closed circular heteroduplexes or heteroduplexes containing a single-strand break 3' to the heterology, such structures are subject to a low level repair reaction that occurs with little strand bias. However, the presence of a single-strand...
