dna repair mechanisms
DNA repair mechanisms are biological processes that repair damage to the DNA molecule in cells. These mechanisms are essential for maintaining the integrity of the genome and preventing genetic mutations that can lead to diseases such as cancer. DNA repair mechanisms include processes such as base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, and double-strand break repair, among others. These mechanisms work together to detect and repair different types of DNA damage, ensuring the stability of the genetic material.
