DNA Repair in Mammalian Tissues and Cells

  • Chapter
DNA Damage and Repair in Human Tissues

Part of the book series: Basic Life Sciences ((BLSC,volume 53))

Abstract

This article will mainly review the work of our laboratories on the repair of DNA damage in human cells and tissues and will include repair of damage caused by ultraviolet light, uracil in DNA and alkylations due to Nnitroso compounds. References to related work will be restricted to those pertinent to the discussion and interpretation of our own work.
