Abstract: Priming DNA for repair When DNA damage introduces double-strand breaks, the ends formed must undergo processing to prepare them for repair. In related studies by the Sung and Kowalczykowski laboratories, this processing reaction has been replicated in vitro using yeast proteins. Processing minimally requires the activities of a helicase, a nuclease and a single-strand binding protein, although the reaction is enhanced by further addition of three factors that help target the core complex and enhance the unwinding activity.
