Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a highly conserved pathway that recognises and removes bulky lesions and helix‐distorting adducts from DNA, thereby safeguarding genomic integrity. In bacteria, the ...
Base excision repair (BER) is a fundamental pathway that safeguards genomic integrity by detecting and removing small base lesions arising from oxidation, alkylation, deamination or spontaneous base ...
The Summit supercomputer revealed how damaged strands of DNA are surgically repaired by a molecular pathway called nucleotide excision repair, or NER. NER’s protein components can change shape to ...
