Relevance: DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are generated upon exposure to genotoxic agents, such as ionizing radiation, and are intermediates during several important physiologic processes, including lymphocyte antigen receptor gene assembly. It is critical that DSBs are appropriately repaired rather than accessing alternative pathways that potentially result in oncogenic chromosomal translocations. We now propose to identify histone modifications that function as intermediates to coordinate the normal repair of DNA-DSBs in mammalian cells
