DNA Damage and Repair: From Molecular Mechanisms to Health Implications
20 Jan 2008
Abstract excerpt
DNA is subjected to several modifications, resulting from endogenous and exogenous sources. The cell has developed a network of complementary DNA-repair mechanisms, and in the human genome, >130 genes have been found to be involved. Knowledge about the basic mechanisms for DNA repair has revealed an unexpected complexity, with overlapping specificity within the same pathway, as well as extensive functional...
