Homologous Recombination A. How are the repair of double strand breaks (DSBs) and production of DSBs for recombination connected? B. How does the general model of strand invasion, branch migration, and resolution of the Holliday junction work? C. How do RecA and RecBCD function to promote recombination? D. Endonuclease activity of RecBCD is greater in the 3'-5' strand, rather than the 5'-3' strand. Describe how this affects strand invasion, branch migration and resolution. E. How is recombination initiated during meiosis...

Which of the following statements is FALSE about double-strand breaks (DSBs)? A. Non-homologous end-joining between the ends of two DSBs can create inversions or translocations. B. Spo11-mediated DSBs initiate meiotic recombination. C. Unrepaired DSBs are lethal to a cell. D. Unrepaired DSBs trigger a checkpoint that arrests cells in G2. E. Cas9 can be targeted to make a DSB at a specific genomic sequence by annealing a small piece of single-stranded DNA that is complementary to the cut site.

Haploid yeast cells that preferentially repair double-strand breaks by homologous recombination (rather than by non-homologous end joining) are especially sensitive to agents that cause double-strand breaks in DNA. If the breaks occur in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, most cells will die; however, if the breaks occur in the G2 phase, a much higher fraction of cells survive. Why do you suppose this is?

Q1: If DNA damage occurred, the cells repair the damage by several mechanisms during the cell cycle. In which phase of the cell cycle cells will repair the damage? Name five of the repair mechanisms that cells are using to repair DNA damage? What are the repair mechanism for double strand DNA breaks? Describe them and Which of them is the error- free repair pathway?

A number of advances have been made in biotechnology.
CRISPR/Cas9 one of the most controversial, and is getting a lot of
current media attention. It is a method by which scientists can
precisely edit DNA sequences at exact locations. Benefits obviously
include the potential to “repair” mutated genes that cause disease.
In fact, preliminary results from one of the earliest clinical
trials of CRISPR/Cas9 provide evidence that the technique is safe
and feasible to use for treating human diseases. What...

5. About double strand DNA repair, it is correct to say that choose the most appropriate answer): (a) It requires one intact strand as a template for error correction. (b) Mismatches in the DNA are usually corrected via double strand DNA repair mechanisms. (c) Homologous recombination usually results in DNA repair with no loss of nucleotide at repair site. (d) Non-homologous end-joining usually results in DNA repair with no loss of nucleotide at repair site. 6. A eukaryote gene has two introns and three exons....
