Description:
The kinetic patterns of DNA synthesis in wild-type (RAD+) and rad 52 mutants of yeast, which exhibit high levels of synchrony during meiosis, are comparable. However, RAD 52 mutants accumulate single-strand breaks in parental DNA during the DNA synthesis period. Thus, the product of the RAD 52 gene has a role in meiotic DNA metabolism, as well as in the repair of DNA damage during mitotic growth. The observed breaks may be unresolved recombination intermediates.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Resnick, M A -- Kasimos, J N -- Game, J C -- Braun, R J -- Roth, R M -- 5 R01 GM17317-11/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- S07-RR07027/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1981 May 1;212(4494):543-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7010606" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
