Abstract excerpt
The immunoglobulin loci of the genetically tractable chicken B cell line DT40 provide a unique opportunity to study the cellular response to endogenously generated DNA damage in a chromosomal context. Abasic sites generated by the concerted action of Activation-Induced Deaminase (AID) and Uracil DNA Glycosylase result in both homologous recombination-dependent gene conversion and translesion synthesis-dependent...
