Article Synopsis
- Replication forks encountering unrepaired single-strand breaks (SSBs) can lead to both single-ended (seDSBs) and double-ended double-strand breaks (deDSBs), which are significant in cancer development.
- The study reveals that in fission yeast, SSBs typically result in deDSBs repaired by homologous recombination, but can also initiate break-induced replication (BIR).
- The occurrence of BIR is more frequent when DNA replication fork convergence is delayed and the Ku70 protein, involved in non-homologous end joining, is absent.
