Refers to the exchange of genetic material between 2 homologous chromosomes. It is important during meisosis and will generate genetic diversity. Important during mitosis and associated with the repair of dna damage. Step 1: breaking of the chromosomes (phosphodiester bonds are broken) 1 break in 1 strand of the mom. 1 break in 1 strand from the father. 2 chromosomes will be aligned according to homologous chromsomes. Acvity of exonuclease which will generate dna in a single stranded form. The single stranded dna from the father will anneal/invade the homolougous chromosome of the mother. Simulatnously the single straded dna from the mother will anneal/invade the homolougous chromosome of the father. Formation of a heteroduplex *circles on image. Formation of the holiday junction- the holliday junction will migrate along the chromosome (more in detail)
