Immunofluorescence microscopy-based detection of ssDNA foci by BrdU in mammalian cells

Summary: DNA end resection converts broken ends of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) to 3′-single-stranded DNA (3′-ssDNA). The extent of resection regulates DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway choice and thereby genomic stability. Here, we characterize an optimized immunofluorescence (IF) microsc...
