Figure 7. Model for the strand-specific processing of DNA ends. (A) End processing in the nucleoplasmic extract. xWRN (and potentially other helicases) are recruited to unwind the end in an ATP-dependent reaction. xDNA2 (and another exonuclease(s)) degrades the 5′ ss-tail. Proteins like MRE11 and CtIP (not depicted) might act upstream of xWRN. (B) The postulated RecQ-RecJ mechanism for end processing.
