Small Cajal body-associated RNA 2 (scaRNA2) regulates DNA repair pathway choice by inhibiting DNA-PK

Proper repair of DNA double-strand breaks is essential for genomic stability. Here, the authors report that a long non-coding RNA, scaRNA2, inhibits DNA-PK and thereby regulates the choice between error-prone NHEJ and error-free HR DNA repair.
