DNARepairjärjestelmät
DNARepairjärjestelmät, or DNA repair systems, are a collection of cellular mechanisms that work to correct errors and damage to DNA. DNA is constantly exposed to various sources of damage, both from internal metabolic processes and external environmental factors like radiation and chemicals. If left unrepaired, these lesions can lead to mutations, which can have severe consequences for the cell, including uncontrolled cell division (cancer) or programmed cell death.
These repair systems are vital for maintaining genomic integrity. There are several major pathways involved in
The efficiency and accuracy of DNARepairjärjestelmät are crucial for the survival and function of all living
