ATM release at resected double-strand breaks provides heterochromatin reconstitution to facilitate homologous recombination.
Non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR) represent the two main pathways for repairing DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). During the G2 phase of the mammalian cell cycle, both processes can operate and chromatin structure is one important factor which determines DSB repair p...
