title: [The role of the repair of double-stranded DNA breaks in the radioresistance of yeast cells].
abstract: The role of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair in radioresistance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae G1 cells is discussed. The contribution of rapid and slow DNA DSB repair to radioresistance of diploid yeast has been estimated. The contribution of the DNA DSB repair involving no homologous chromosome interaction is shown to be insignificant in comparison with the recombinational repair. The rapid DNA DSB repair efficiency calculation method based on the proposed yeast radiation inactivation model is given. The calculations are in a satisfactory agreement with the experimental data. Possible mechanisms of radiation induction of lethal sectoring in yeast are discussed. This phenomenon is supposed to be due to the DNA DSB processing during vegetative division of irradiated cells. A general scheme of radiation inactivation of yeast cells is proposed.
