Project description:SPO11-promoted DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) formation is a crucial step for meiotic recombination, and it is indispensable to detect the broken DNA ends accurately for dissecting the molecular mechanisms behind. Here, we report a novel technique, named DEtail-seq (DNA End tailing followed by sequencing), that can directly and quantitatively capture the meiotic DSB 3’ overhang hotspots at single-nucleotide resolution.
Project description:In depth analysis of double strand break signaling was performed using mouse Pre-B cells and Human HCT116 cells. Our analysis included the induction of double strand breaks with ionizing radiation with the addition of ATM and DNA-PKcs inhibitors, alone and in combination.
