Abstract excerpt
Genomic integrity is challenged by endo- and exogenous assaults that are combated by highly conserved DNA repair mechanisms. Repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) is of particular importance, as DSBs inflict chromosome breaks that are the basis of genomic instability. High fidelity recombination repair of DSBs relies on the Rad51 recombinase, aided by several Rad51 paralogs. Despite their significant...
