Abstract

By mapping physiological double-strand breaks (DSBs) of tumorigenic and non-tumorigenic cells Hazan et al. uncover a coupled transcription-repair mechanism at oncogenic super-enhancers in which RAD51 of the homologous recombination pathway plays a key role supporting the hyper-transcription of related oncogenes.
