| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are deleterious DNA damage. DSBs are repaired by two major DNA repair pathways: Non Homologous End Joining and Homologous Recombination (HR). RNF8 has been known as a molecule that promotes NHEJ and suppresses HR. In this research, we revealed that RNF8 promotes HR in BRCA1-negative cells. 2. DSBs are utilized for gene editing technology. However, DSBs can induce gene mutations during gene editing with DSBs. We have developed DSB-free new gene editing methods and revealed molecular mechanisms working in the gene editing technology.
