Figure 6. Hop1 CBR domain promotes DSB activity.
The hop1-loop2 allele is simplified to loop2 in figure labels. (A) Pulsed-field gel and Southern blot analysis of chromosome VIII (analyzed using a probe against CBP2). (B) Percent total broken DNA calculated based on a Poisson distribution using the intact chromosome VIII bands for each genotype and assuming full replication by 6 h (Thacker et al, 2014). Data represents four biological replicates, error bars indicate standard deviation. (C) Southern blot analysis of the GAT1 locus across genotypes during meiosis. The GAT1 hotspot is located outside an island on chromosome 6 (the second smallest chromosome). Top band represents the intact GAT1 locus. Bottom band represents DSBs that occur at the GAT1 locus. (D) Measurements of the DSB induction for each genotype at the GAT1 locus. Data represents two biological replicates for each genotype, with the exception of zip1Δ hop1-loop2 and zip1Δ hop1-loop2 pch2Δ, which were analyzed once. Source data are available online for this figure.
