DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair by homologous recombination (HR) is thought to be restricted to the S- and G<sub>2</sub>- phases of the cell cycle in part due to 53BP1 antagonizing DNA end resection in G<sub>1</sub>-phase and non-cycling quiescent (G<sub>0</sub>) cells. Here, we show that LIN37, a component of the DREAM transcriptional repressor, functions in a 53BP1-independent manner to prevent DNA end resection and HR in G<sub>0</sub> cells. Loss of LIN37 leads to the expression of HR pr ...[more]
