Abstract excerpt
Rejoining of DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) plays a central role in the various processes leading to DNA rearrangements. We have analyzed DNA alterations induced by restriction enzymes that produce DSB with specific types of ends. Restriction enzymes were electroporated into a human lymphoblastoid cell line that stably maintains pHAZE, an EBV-based vector containing the lacZ gene. After allowing time for DSB...
