BRCA1: 50 to 87%
BRCA2: 15 to 44%
HDR-Gene Correction/Gene Addition
Nonhomologous end-joining
1. Double-strand break
• Induced by ionizing radiation.
2. End recognition
• Broken ends are recognized by heterodimers of
Ku70/Ku80.
3. End processing:
• The endonuclease Artemis is activated by the
DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit
(DNA-PKCS).
5. Ligation
• The broken ends are ligated by the XRCC4-DNA
ligase IV complex.
In vitro assays suggest that there is flexibility in
the order of the three key enzymatic steps on
each strand:
•Nucleolytic action
•Polymerization
•Ligation
