RAG2’s Acidic Hinge Restricts Repair-Pathway Choice and Promotes Genomic Stability
29 Aug 2013
Abstract excerpt
V(D)J recombination-associated DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are normally repaired by the high-fidelity classical nonhomologous end-joining (cNHEJ) machinery. Previous studies implicated the recombination-activating gene (RAG)/DNA postcleavage complex (PCC) in regulating pathway choice by preventing access to inappropriate repair mechanisms such as homologous recombination (HR) and alternative NHEJ (aNHEJ)....
