Rad51 inhibits translocation formation by non-conservative homologous recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Chromosomal translocations are a primary biological response to ionizing radiation (IR) exposure, and are likely to result from the inappropriate repair of the DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) that are created. An abundance of repetitive sequences in eukaryotic genomes provides ample opportunity for...
