Genomic landscape of oxidative DNA damage and repair reveals regioselective protection from mutagenesis

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: DNA is subject to constant chemical modification and damage, which eventually results in variable mutation rates throughout the genome. Although detailed molecular mechanisms of DNA damage and repair are well understood, damage impact and execution of repair across a genome remain poorly defined. RESULTS: To bridge the gap between our understanding of DNA repair and mutation distributions, we...
