Scope and Contents

Contents

In mammalian cells, DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) cause rapid phosphorylation of the H2AX core histone variant (to form γ-H2AX) in megabase chromatin domains flanking sites of DNA damage. To investigate the role of H2AX in mammalian cells, we generated H2AX-deficient (H2AXΔ/Δ) mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. H2AXΔ/ΔES cells are viable. However,...
