Early events in the mammalian response to DNA double-strand breaks
13 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
Physical and chemical agents that induce DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are among the most potent mutagens. The mammalian cell response to DSB comprises a highly co-ordinated, yet complex network of proteins that have been categorized as sensors, signal transducers, mediators and effectors of damage and repair.
