Chromosomal double-strand breaks (DSBs) are resected by 5M-bM-^@M-^Y-nucleases to form 3M-bM-^@M-^Y single-strand DNA (ssDNA) substrates for binding by homologous recombination and DNA damage checkpoint proteins. Two redundant pathways of extensive resection were described both in cells and in vitro...
