Abstract excerpt
Functioning DNA repair capabilities are vital for organisms to ensure that the biological information is preserved and correctly propagated. Disruptions in DNA repair pathways can result in the accumulation of DNA mutations, which may lead to onset of complex disease such as cancer. The discovery and characterization of cancer-related biomarkers may allow early diagnosis and targeted treatment, which could...
