Facts about DNA endonuclease RBBP8.
Key determinant of DSB repair pathway option, as it commits cells to HR by preventing classical non-homologous end- joining (NHEJ). Functions downstream of the MRN complex and ATM, promotes ATR activation and its recruitment to DSBs in the S/G2 phase facilitating the creation of ssDNA.
