Description
"In order to maintain genome integrity, it is essential that any DNA damage is repaired. This is achieved in diverse ways in all cells to ensure their survival. There is a large repertoire of proteins that remove and repair DNA damage. However, sometimes these processes do not function correctly, leading to genome instability, which is known to cause a number of hereditary diseases in humans. DNA Damage: from Causes to Cures features contributions from the invited speakers at the Biochemical Society's Annual Symposium held at Robinson College, Cambridge, on 15-18 December 2008. The featured chapters, written by experts in the field, showcase studies of DNA repair and genome instability, with a particular focus on how research is developing a deeper understanding of the causes and potential cures of DNA damage"--Publisher's description.
