Microhomology-mediated end joining acts directly on replication forks to repair single-ended double strand breaks

Shibo Li, Yuqin Zhao, Youhang Li…·Xiaohua Wu

This study shows that microhomology-mediated end joining (MMEJ) repairs single-ended DSBs at replication forks, working with BIR and being regulated by ATR and Pol{theta}.

Break-induced replication is activated to repair R-loop-associated double-strand breaks in SETX-deficient cells

Tong Wu, Youhang Li, Yuqin Zhao…·Xiaohua Wu

This study shows that BIR is activated to repair R-loop-associated double-strand breaks in SETX-deficient cells, leading to hyper-recombination and synthetic lethality with PIF1, RAD52, and XPF.
