Compare and contrast non-homologous end joining and homologous recombination. What are the pros and cons of each?
Ans) Pros of Non-homologous end joining is that it is the emergency solution for the double stranded break repair.
Cons of Non-homologous end joining is that it is more error prone.
Pros of Homologous recombination is that it is more accurate (since the exchange of homologous segments occurs).
Cons is it predominates only in S and G2 phases and not in G0 and G1 phase.
Both Homologous recombination and Non-homologous end joining can be used for Double stranded break repair.Both of then can cause gene conversion due replacement of one allele by another by recombination during meiosis.
Homologous recombination is initiated by Rec BCD enzyme (exonuclease V with both nuclease and helicase activity) and it provides 3' DNA. RecA protein assemble on 3' DNA more efficiently. Next process is then strand invasion followed by branch migration and finally the resolution of holliday junction.
Non-homologous end joining is initiated by Ku 70 and Ku 80 heterodimer which recruit DNA dependent protein kinase and Artemis. Artemis has both exonuclease and endonuclease activity. DNA dependent protein kinase activate XRCC4 which bind to DNA ligase and repair the Double stranded DNA break.

Describe eukaryotic meiotic recombination pathway and compare/contrast with E. coli's homologous recombination.
Compare and contrast the pros and cons of owning a franchise?
Haploid yeast cells that preferentially repair double-strand breaks by homologous recombination (rather than by non-homologous end joining) are especially sensitive to agents that cause double-strand breaks in DNA. If the breaks occur in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, most cells will die; however, if the breaks occur in the G2 phase, a much higher fraction of cells survive. Why do you suppose this is?
Compare and contrast static variable declarations versus dynamic variable declarations. State as many pros and cons as you can.
Describe how Nucleotide Excision Repair, Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR), and Non-homologous End Joining (NHEJ) are beneficial for repair of damaged DNA. If you could choose between having HRR and NHEJ performed, which would you choose and why?
Understand how non homologous end joining proteins and homology-directed repair work, how they are used in DNA repair, and how they are used in CRISPR/Cas9. Also understand the basics of how CRISPR/Cas9 can be used to alter DNA sequences.
