Nonhomologous recombination in mammalian cells: role for short sequence homologies in the joining reaction.

abstract：:The mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases represent one of the most important classes of signaling cascades that are used by eukaryotic cells to sense extracellular signals. One of the major responses to these cascades is a change in cellular gene expression profiles mediated through the direct targeting of transcri...
