Recent insights into eukaryotic double-strand DNA break repair unveiled by single-molecule methods
Trends Genet. 2023 Oct 6:S0168-9525(23)00221-4. doi: 10.1016/j.tig.2023.09.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGenome integrity and maintenance are essential for the viability of all organisms. A wide variety of DNA damage types have been described, but double-strand breaks (DSBs) stand out as one of the most toxic DNA lesions. Two major pathways account for the repair of DSBs: homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). Both pathways involve complex DNA transactions catalyzed by proteins that sequentially or cooperatively work to repair the damage. Single-molecule methods allow visualization of the...

Noncoding snoRNA host genes are a distinct subclass of long noncoding RNAs
Trends Genet. 2023 Sep 30:S0168-9525(23)00218-4. doi: 10.1016/j.tig.2023.09.001. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMammalian genomes are pervasively transcribed into different noncoding (nc)RNA classes, each one with its own hallmarks and exceptions. Some of them are nested into each other, such as host genes for small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), which were long believed to simply act as molecular containers strictly facilitating snoRNA biogenesis. However, recent findings show that noncoding snoRNA host genes (ncSNHGs) display features different from those of 'regular' long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and, more importantly, they can exert...
