Meiosis: The elusive sister chromatid repair
Abstract
Meiotic double-strand break repair is a highly regulated process usually occurring between homologs. Assessing repair in metazoans using the sister chromatid has previously been technically challenging. Two new studies show that, while rare, sister chromatid repair occurs in Caenorhabditis elegans.
