ATM Kinase and BLM Helicase: A Regulator and Key Player in Microhomology-Mediated End Joining
Microhomology-mediated end joining (MMEJ) is a class of DNA repair used to join DNA ends following a double-strand break (DSB). It represents an unfavorable and error-prone pathway because it results in deletion of nucleotides between microhomologies, as well as the deletion of one microhomology. Th...
