Aberrant Double-Strand Break Repair in <i>rad51</i> Mutants of <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A number of studies of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have revealed RAD51-independent recombination events. These include spontaneous and double-strand break-induced recombination between repeated sequences, and capture of a chromosome arm by break-induced replication. Although recombination between inverted repeats is considered to be a conservative intramolecular event, the lack of requirement for RAD51 suggests that repair can also occur by a nonconservative mechanism. We propose a model for RAD51-independent recombination by one-ended strand invasion coupled to DNA synthesis, followed by single-strand annealing. The Rad1/Rad10 endonuclease is required to trim intermediates formed during single-strand annealing and thus was expected to be required for RAD51-independent events by this model. Double-strand break repair between plasmid-borne inverted repeats was less efficient in rad1 rad51 double mutants than in rad1 and rad51 strains. In addition, repair events were delayed and frequently associated with plasmid loss. Furthermore, the repair products recovered from the rad1 rad51 strain were primarily in the crossover configuration, inconsistent with conservative models for mitotic double-strand break repair.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
