Abstract excerpt
Eukaryotic ribonucleases (RNase) H1 and H2 are endonucleases that cleave RNA in a double- stranded RNA-DNA molecule. RNase H2 can also cleave a single ribonucleotide embedded in DNA duplex. While the activity of RNase H1 and H2 has been extensively characterized in vitro, still much is unclear about the specific targets of these enzymes in vivo. We recently demonstrated that yeast cells can repair a double-strand...
