Exploring DNA Repair in Humans: Understanding Molecular Mechanisms and Consequences of Repair Defects
At the core of cellular health lies the intricate machinery of DNA repair pathways. These pathways, including base excision repair (BER), nucleotide excision repair (NER), mismatch repair (MMR), homologous recombination (HR), and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), serve as guardians of our genetic material. Each pathway is finely tuned to address specific types of DNA damage, […]
