GO term: meiotic DNA double-strand break processing Help


Ontology: Biological Process (GO:0000706)

Definition: The cell cycle process whereby the 5' to 3' exonucleolytic resection of the DNA at the site of the break to form a 3' single-strand DNA overhang occurs. This takes place during meiosis.

Annotation Summary


This table lists the methods used to annotate genes either directly to the term meiotic DNA double-strand break processing (3 genes) or to its variants containing one or more qualifiers (0 genes). Note that some genes may have been annotated by more than one method so the numbers in the table below may not add up to the totals given here.
