Double-Strand Signal Sequence Breaks in V(D)J Recombination Are Blunt, 5'-Phosphorylated, RAG-Dependent, and Cell Cycle Regulated Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 4, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Double-strand signal sequence breaks in V(D)Jrecombination are blunt, 5'-phosphorylated, RAG-dependent, and celIcycle regulated Mark Schlissel, Andrei Constantinescu, Terri Morrow, Mike Baxter, and Albert Peng Departments of Medicine and Molecular Biology and Genetics, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205 USA Immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor genes are assembled during lymphocyte development by a novel, highly regulated series of gene rearrangement reactions known as V(D)I recombination. All rearranging loci are flanked by conserved heptamer-nonamer recombination signal sequences. Gene rearrangement results in the imprecise fusion of coding sequences and the precise fusion of signal sequences. DNA molecules with double-stranded breaks near signal sequences have been detected in cells undergoing V(D)I recombination of the TCR8 locus. We have devised a ligation-mediated PCR assay that detects broken-ended molecules in purified genomic DNA. Using this assay we found that DNA breaks occurring precisely at the signal sequence-coding sequence junction are a general feature of V(D)I recombination, appearing in association with each type of rearranging immunoglobulin gene segment. We show that a significant fraction of these broken ends are blunt and 5'-phosphorylated. In addition, detection of these broken-ended signal sequences is dependent on the activity of RAG-1 and RAG-2, and is restricted to the Go/G1 phase of the cell cycle. The pattern of broken-ended molecules detected in cells at various stages of development reflects the activity of the V(D)J recombinase at different loci during B- and T-cell development.

General Information The Latin script1 or Roman script is a major writing system of the world today, and the most widely used in terms of number of languages and number of speakers, with circa 70% of the world’s readers and writers making use of this script2 (Wikipedia). Historically, it is derived from the Greek alphabet, as is the Cyrillic script. The Greek alphabet is in turn derived from the Phoenician alphabet which dates to the mid-11th century BC and is itself based on older scripts. This explains why Latin, Cyrillic and Greek share some letters, which may become relevant to the ruleset in the form of cross-script variants. The Latin alphabet itself originated in Italy in the 7th Century BC. The original alphabet contained 21 upper case only letters: A, B, C, D, E, F, Z, H, I, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, V and X.

  • Spherical Coordinates
    Spherical Coordinates z r^ Transforms ^ " r The forward and reverse coordinate transformations are ! ^ ! r = x2 + y2 + z 2 r x = rsin! cos" y arctan" x2 y2 , z$ y r sin sin ! = # + % = ! " z = rcos! & = arctan(y,x) x " where we formally take advantage of the two argument arctan function to eliminate quadrant confusion. Unit Vectors The unit vectors in the spherical coordinate system are functions of position. It is convenient to express them in terms of the spherical coordinates and the unit vectors of the rectangular coordinate system which are not themselves functions of position. ! r xxˆ + yyˆ + zzˆ rˆ = = = xˆ sin! cos" + yˆ sin! sin " + zˆ cos! r r zˆ #rˆ "ˆ = = $ xˆ sin " + yˆ cos" sin! !ˆ = "ˆ # rˆ = xˆ cos! cos" + yˆ cos! sin " $ zˆ sin! Variations of unit vectors with the coordinates Using the expressions obtained above it is easy to derive the following handy relationships: !rˆ = 0 !r !rˆ = xˆ cos" cos# + yˆ cos" sin # $ zˆ sin " = "ˆ !" !rˆ = $xˆ sin" sin # + yˆ sin " cos# = ($ xˆ sin # + yˆ cos #)sin" = #ˆ sin" !# !"ˆ = 0 !r !"ˆ = 0 !# !"ˆ = $xˆ cos" $ yˆ sin " = $ rˆ sin # + #ˆ cos# !" ( ) !"ˆ = 0 !r !"ˆ = # xˆ sin " cos$ # yˆ sin" sin $ # zˆ cos" = #rˆ !" !"ˆ = # xˆ cos" sin $ + yˆ cos" cos$ = $ˆ cos" !$ Path increment ! We will have many uses for the path increment d r expressed in spherical coordinates: ! $ !rˆ !rˆ !rˆ ' dr = d(rrˆ ) = rˆ dr + rdrˆ = rˆ dr + r& dr + d" + d#) % !r !" !# ( = rˆ dr +"ˆ rd " + #ˆr sin "d# Time derivatives of the unit vectors We will also have many uses for the time derivatives of the unit vectors
