Homologous recombination (HR) is a DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway that protects the genome from chromosomal instability. RAD51 mediator proteins (i.e. paralogs) are critical for efficient HR in mammalian cells. However, how HR-deficient

The ERCC1-XPF structure-specific endonuclease is necessary for correct processing of homologous recombination intermediates requiring the removal of end-blocking nonhomologies. We previously showed that targeting the endogenous CHO APRT locus with pl

We examined the wavelength dependence of ultraviolet (UV) ra-diation (UVR)-induced melanoma in a Xiphophorus backcross hybrid model previously reported to be susceptible to melanoma induction by ultraviolet A (UVA) and visible light. Whereas ultravio

Melanoma is the most lethal form of skin cancer, and its incidence is rising rapidly (Chin et al., 2006; Linos et al., 2009). Highly aggressive, metastatic melanoma is notoriously resistant to chemotherapy, and early detection is critical for surgica

Correction of a defective gene is a promising approach for both basic research and clinical gene therapy. However, the absence of site-specific targeting and the low efficiency of homologous recombination in human cells present barriers to successful

Genetic hybrids of the genus Xiphophorus have historically been useful models for study of the genetic aspects of tumor formation. In the most studied Xiphophorus tumor model, two-gene loci, XMRK and DIFF, are implicated as critical both to UV-induce

The UV hypersensitive CHO cell mutant UV41 is the archetypal XPF mammalian cell mutant, and was essential for cloning the human nucleotide excision repair (NER) gene XPF by DNA transfection and rescue. The ERCC1 and XPF genes encode proteins that for

Selected hybridization in the fish genus Xiphophorus has been used for many years to study the genetics of malignant melanoma. Because DNA damage caused by ultraviolet radiation is implicated in the etiology of sunlight-induced melanoma, the heritabi

Xiphophorus interspecies hybrids provide several well-characterized genetic models of melanoma susceptibility. The Xiphophorus CDKN2A/B gene, homologous to mammalian CDKN2A/B cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (p16 and p15), is a candidate tumor susc
