Srs2 promotes synthesis-dependent strand annealing by disrupting DNA polymerase δ-extending D-loops

Synthesis-dependent strand annealing (SDSA) is the preferred mode of homologous recombination in somatic cells leading to an obligatory non-crossover outcome, thus avoiding the potential for chromosomal rearrangements and loss of heterozygosity. Genetic analysis identified the Srs2 helicase as a pri...
