ABSTRACT: Cell cycle is a major determinant of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway choice with homologous recombination (HR) that is most active in S phase cells and non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) that dominates in G1 phase cells. A third less well-defined mechanism, 'alternative end-joining', has been shown to promote error-prone repair in NHEJ- or HR-deficient cells. Here, we have used a physiologic system of NHEJ-mediated genomic rearrangements induced by the site-specific RAG1/2 endonuclease in G1 cells to investigate the fate of unrepaired G1 DSBs upon entry into the cell cycle. We show that, in the absence of XRCC4, alternative end-joining rescues RAG-induced DSB repair and promotes chromosome translocations upon G1 cell cycle exit.
