Genetics 163:1031-40. 2003....
Forward genetic screens for meiotic and mitotic recombination-defective mutants in miceLaura Reinholdt
The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, ME, USA
Methods Mol Biol 262:87-107. 2004..Both strategies have proved effective in identifying desired classes of mutations...
The mouse genomic instability mutation chaos1 is an allele of Polq that exhibits genetic interaction with AtmNaoko Shima
Department of Biomedical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine, Cornell University, 9th Fl Vet Research Tower, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA
Mol Cell Biol 24:10381-9. 2004..These data suggest a unique role of Polq in maintaining genomic integrity, which is probably distinctive from the major homologous recombination pathway regulated by ATM...
The translesion DNA polymerase theta plays a dominant role in immunoglobulin gene somatic hypermutationHong Zan
Center for Immunology, School of Medicine and School of Biological Sciences, University of California, Irvine, CA, USA
EMBO J 24:3757-69. 2005....
A viable allele of Mcm4 causes chromosome instability and mammary adenocarcinomas in miceNaoko Shima
Department of Genetics, Cell Biology and Development, College of Biological Sciences, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455, USA
Nat Genet 39:93-8. 2007..These findings suggest that hypomorphic alleles of the genes encoding the subunits of the MCM2-7 complex may increase breast cancer risk...
Genetic screen for chromosome instability in mice: Mcm4 and breast cancerNaoko Shima
Department of Genetics, Cell Biology and Development, Medical School and College of Biological Sciences, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455, USA
Cell Cycle 6:1135-40. 2007..These findings demonstrate, for the first time, the causative role of an Mcm mutation in cancer development. Furthermore, this raises the possibility that hypomorphic mutations in MCM2-7 genes may increase breast cancer risk in humans...

Stalled fork rescue via dormant replication origins in unchallenged S phase promotes proper chromosome segregation and tumor suppressionTsuyoshi Kawabata
Department of Genetics, Cell Biology and Development, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA
Mol Cell 41:543-53. 2011..These findings suggest that dormant origins constitute a major pathway for stalled fork recovery, contributing to faithful chromosome segregation and tumor suppression...
Functional screen of human MCM2-7 variant alleles for disease-causing potentialNathan A Steere
