Gene conversion tracts in Saccharomyces cerevisiae can be extremely short and highly directional.

Abstract excerpt

Gene conversion is a common outcome of double-strand break (DSB) repair in yeast. Prior studies revealed that DSB-induced gene conversion tracts are often short (<53 bp), unidirectional, and biased toward promoter-proximal (5') markers. In those studies, broken ends had short, non-homologous termini. For the present study we created plasmid x chromosome, chromosomal direct repeat and allelic recombination...
