RNA-mediated double-strand break repair by end-joining mechanisms

Abstract Double-strand breaks (DSBs) in DNA are challenging to repair. Cells employ at least three DSB-repair mechanisms, with a preference for non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) over homologous recombination (HR) and microhomology-mediated end joining (MMEJ). While most eukaryotic DNA is transcribed...
