V(D)J Recombination: Recent Insights in Formation of the Recombinase Complex and Recruitment of DNA Repair Machinery

V(D)J recombination is an essential mechanism of the adaptive immune system, producing a diverse set of antigen receptors in developing lymphocytes via regulated double strand DNA break and subsequent repair. DNA cleavage is initiated by the recombinase complex, consisting of lymphocyte specific pro...
