Abstract
By mapping physiological double-strand breaks (DSBs) of tumorigenic and non-tumorigenic cells Hazan et al. uncover a coupled transcription-repair mechanism at oncogenic super-enhancers in which RAD51 of the homologous recombination pathway plays a key role supporting the hyper-transcription of related oncogenes.

I.H. designed and performed the experiments and wrote the manuscript. J.M. analyzed BLISS and ChIP-seq data. N.C. and B.A.M.B. developed the BLISS and sBLISS protocol. B.A.M.B. performed all sBLISS experiments. R.I.A. designed and supervised the experiments, was responsible for the overall project strategy and management, and wrote the manuscript.
