ZFIN GO: Biological Process: DNA strand invasion

OBO ID: GO:0042148

Term Name:	DNA strand invasion		Search Ontology:
Synonyms:	D-loop biosynthesis D-loop formation displacement loop biosynthesis displacement loop formation Rad51-mediated strand invasion strand invasion
Definition:	The process in which the nucleoprotein complex (composed of the broken single-strand DNA and the recombinase) searches and identifies a region of homology in intact duplex DNA. The broken single-strand DNA displaces the like strand and forms Watson-Crick base pairs with its complement, forming a duplex in which each strand is from one of the two recombining DNA molecules. 10357855
