[70] γH2AX (H2AX phosphorylated on serine 139) can be detected as soon as 20 seconds after irradiation of cells (with DNA double-strand break formation), and half maximum accumulation of γH2AX occurs in one minute. [70] The extent of chromatin with phosphorylated γH2AX is about two million base pairs at the site of a DNA double-strand break.
[52] γH2AX (H2AX phosphorylated on serine 139) can be detected as soon as 20 seconds after irradiation of cells (with DNA double-strand break formation), and half maximum accumulation of γH2AX occurs in one minute. [52] The extent of chromatin with phosphorylated γH2AX is about two million base pairs at the site of a DNA double-strand break.
During step (2), damages in DNA of the germline can be removed by double-strand break repair. [41] In particular, double-strand breaks in one duplex DNA molecule can be accurately repaired using information from a homologous intact DNA molecule by the process of homologous recombination. [41]
Single-strand breaks (SSBs) occur when one strand of the DNA double helix experiences breakage of a single nucleotide accompanied by damaged 5’- and/or 3’-termini at this point. One common source of SSBs is due to oxidative attack by physiological reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide.
Non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) is a pathway that repairs double-strand breaks in DNA. It is called "non-homologous" because the break ends are directly ligated without the need for a homologous template, in contrast to homology directed repair (HDR), which requires a homologous sequence to guide repair.
[38] γH2AX (H2AX phosphorylated on serine 139) can be detected as soon as 20 seconds after irradiation of cells (with DNA double-strand break formation), and half maximum accumulation of γH2AX occurs in one minute. [38] The extent of chromatin with phosphorylated γH2AX is about two million base pairs at the site of a DNA double-strand break.
Meiotic recombination may begin with a double-strand break, either induced by Spo11 [2] or by other endogenous or exogenous causes of DNA damage. These DNA breaks must be repaired before metaphase I. and these DSBs must be repaired before metaphase I. The cell monitor these DSBs via ATM pathway, in which Cdc25 is suppressed when DSB lesion is ...
A double-strand break is a kind of DNA damage in which both strands in the double helix are severed. DSBs only occur during DNA replication of the cell cycle.Furthermore, DSBs can lead to genome rearrangements and instability. [3]
