Kirkham, CM and Boyes, J orcid.org/0000-0002-8705-9827 (2019) Genome instability triggered by the V(D)J recombination by-product. Molecular and Cellular Oncology, 6 (4). 1610323. ISSN 2372-3556
Abstract
A newly identified process by which mistargeted V(D)J recombination could cause genome instability in childhood leukemia has been discovered. In this mechanism, called cut-and-run, the excised DNA by-products of V(D)J recombination are re-bound by the recombinase proteins and erroneously trigger double-strand breaks at multiple locations throughout the genome. Many of these breakpoints co-localize with known chromosome alterations in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
