SRHrekombinaatio

SRHrekombinaatio, also known as SRH recombination, is a genetic recombination process that occurs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a type of yeast commonly used in scientific research. This process is a key mechanism in yeast genetics and is used to study gene function, gene expression, and genetic interactions. SRH recombination involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes, resulting in the creation of new genetic combinations. The process is initiated by the formation of a double-strand break in the DNA, which is then repaired through a homologous recombination pathway. This pathway involves the invasion of a single-stranded DNA from one chromosome into the double-stranded DNA of the homologous chromosome, followed by the exchange of genetic material and the resolution of the recombination intermediates. SRH recombination is an important tool in yeast genetics, as it allows for the precise manipulation of the yeast genome and the study of genetic interactions. The process has also been used to study homologous recombination in other organisms, including humans.
