Confocal imaging of Rad51-YFP foci in live AFB₁-exposed yeast cells. (a) Control, no AFB₁ exposure, (b) Rad51-foci after exposure to X-rays, (c) Rad51 foci in logarithmically growing cells exposed to 50 μM AFB₁, wide view, and (d) Rad51 focus in a synchronized cell after alpha factor arrest and exposure to AFB₁.
