Major Events of Homologous Recombination
Answer 1
End Resection only a requirement in HR
What causes the cell to choose Homologous Recombination?
Cell in late S and G2 because it requires the sister chromatid nearby to repair and because end resection is regulated by CDK1 which is only present in S and G2
Major Proteins Invloved in Homologous Recombination
RecA, Rad51, Rad54, ATM,
HR pathways

Major Events of Nonhomologous End Joining
Ku70/80 binds DNA ends. DNA-PK bind to Ku heterodimer and autophosphorylate. XRCC (ligas IV) ligates DNA together
What causes the cell to choose NHEJ?
Quick and in all stages of cell cycle. All cells in G0/G1 are repaired by NHEJ. Most NHEJ occurs in G1.
Major Proteins Involved in NHEJ
Ku 70/80, XRCC4-Lig4, DNA-PKs
V(D)J Recombination
Randomly combines Variable Diverse and Joining Genes in B cells.
