Abstract excerpt
In human cells homologous recombination (HR) is critical for repair of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) and rescue of stalled or collapsed replication forks. HR is facilitated by RAD51 which is loaded onto DNA by either BRCA2-BRCA1-PALB2 or RAD52. In human culture cells, double-knockdowns of RAD52 and genes in the BRCA1-BRCA2-PALB2 axis are lethal. Mutations in BRCA2, BRCA1 or PALB2 significantly impairs error...
