Abstract excerpt
Regulation of intracellular deoxynucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) pool is critical to genomic stability and cancer development. Imbalanced dNTP pools can lead to enhanced mutagenesis and cell proliferation resulting in cancer development. Therapeutic agents that target dNTP synthesis and metabolism are commonly used in treatment of several types of cancer. Despite several studies, the molecular mechanisms that...
