De novo deletions and duplications at recombination hotspots in mouse germlines

2020-06-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Numerous DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) arise during meiosis to initiate homologous recombination. These DSBs are usually repaired faithfully, but here we uncover a new type of mutational event in which deletions form via joining of ends from two closely spaced DSBs (double cuts) within a single hotspot or at adjacent hotspots on the same or different chromatids. Deletions occur in normal meiosi...
