Mechanism for inverted-repeat recombination induced by a replication fork barrier

Replication stress and abundant repetitive sequences have emerged as primary conditions underlying genomic instability in eukaryotes. Here the authors use a prokaryotic Tus/Ter barrier designed to induce transient replication fork stalling near inverted repeats in the budding yeast genome to support...

description Replication stress and abundant repetitive sequences have emerged as primary conditions underlying genomic instability in eukaryotes. Here the authors use a prokaryotic Tus/Ter barrier designed to induce transient replication fork stalling near inverted repeats in the budding yeast genome to support a model for recombination of closely linked repeats at stalled replication forks.
