DSB repair by synthesis-dependent strand annealing. Processing of a DSB (A) begins with resection of the ends to leave 3′-ended single-stranded overhangs (B). One or both of these invade a homologous template (C) and prime repair synthesis (D). The nascent strand is dissociated (E), allowing it to anneal to complementary single-stranded DNA (F).
