Abstract excerpt
Genes in the RAD52 epistasis group are involved in repairing DNA double-stranded breaks via homologous recombination. We have previously shown that RAD50 is involved in mitotic nonhomologous integration but not in homologous integration. However, the role of Rad50 in nonhomologous integration has not previously been examined. In the current work, we report that the rad50∆ mutation caused a tenfold decrease in the...
