Abstract excerpt
Mammalian cells have numerous DNA repair pathways to repair lesions generated by replication errors, metabolism, and exogenous agents. Cells can sense and respond to DNA damage within seconds, suggesting that there is a highly effective sensor of lesions although the mechanistic details are unclear. The DNA damage response in mammalian cells results in a localized transient de-condensation of chromatin, loss of...
