The two faces of DNA repair: disease and therapy.

Abstract excerpt

Our genome is the blueprint for our bodies. A number of sophisticated mechanisms help protect our genome from life-threatening cellular mistakes and environmental insults. Much current research focuses on understanding these mechanisms, how they prevent disease, and whether they can be targeted for therapeutic purposes. Here, we review the main mechanisms maintaining genome integrity, how their malfunctioning...
