Abstract excerpt
Homologous recombination in mammalian cells between extrachromosomal molecules, as well as between episomes and chromosomes, can be mediated by a nonconservative mechanism. It has been proposed that the key steps in this process are the generation (by double-strand cleavage) of overlapping homologous ends, the creation of complementary single-strand ends (either by strand-specific exonuclease degradation or by...
