CtIP achieves that by stimulating the activity of two nucleases (MRE11 and DNA2), which resect DNA end creating single-strand DNA overhangs required for the downstream steps in the recombination pathway. Cell lacking CtIP consequently exhibit abrogated DNA end resection and homologous recombination.<\/p>\n<p class=\"rtejustify\">A recent study from the Cejka laboratory at IRB, affiliated with USI, shows that a CtIP variant lacking parts of its central domain is even more efficient than the wild type protein. This unexpected result identified that the central domain of CtIP functions as an inhibitor of DNA end resection, and CtIP can regulate the efficacy of DNA end resection both positively and negatively. The study was published in Nucleic Acids Research.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20075\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20075\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/irb.usi.ch\/images\/nucleic_acid_res_petr_may2020.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-20075\" src=\"https:\/\/irb.usi.ch\/images\/nucleic_acid_res_petr_may2020-1024x764.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"597\" srcset=\"https:\/\/irb.usi.ch\/images\/nucleic_acid_res_petr_may2020-1024x764.png 1024w, https:\/\/irb.usi.ch\/images\/nucleic_acid_res_petr_may2020-300x224.png 300w, https:\/\/irb.usi.ch\/images\/nucleic_acid_res_petr_may2020-768x573.png 768w, https:\/\/irb.usi.ch\/images\/nucleic_acid_res_petr_may2020-1536x1146.png 1536w, https:\/\/irb.usi.ch\/images\/nucleic_acid_res_petr_may2020-2048x1528.png 2048w, https:\/\/irb.usi.ch\/images\/nucleic_acid_res_petr_may2020-750x560.png 750w, https:\/\/irb.usi.ch\/images\/nucleic_acid_res_petr_may2020-1140x851.png 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20075\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The internal region of CtIP inhibits single strand annealing.
