Abstract excerpt
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) constantly attack DNA. One of the best-characterized oxidative DNA lesions is 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxo-G). Many human diseases, such as cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, have been correlated with oxidative DNA damage. In the last few years, DNA polymerase (Pol) λ, one of the 15 cellular Pols, has been identified to play an important role in performing accurate...
