71Transcription-coupled repair — is a DNA repair mechanism which operates in tandem with transcription. The activity of TCR has been known for 20 years, but its mechanism of action is an area of current research. Failure of the transcription coupled repair is the cause of… …
72Excision repair — is a term applied to several DNA repair mechanisms.Excision repair mechanisms that remove the damaged nucleotide replacing it with an undamaged nucleotide complementary to the nucleotide in the undamaged DNA strand. These include: *Base excision… …
