Yesterday we covered most of the DNA repair section in chapter 5.
We talked about the most common spontaneous DNA changes (e.g. depurination and deamination), the importance of having genetic information coded in a double helix, the main mechanisms of DNA repair (base excision repair, and nucleotide excision repair), and transcription-coupled repair.
On Monday we'll talk about emergency DNA repair and repairing double strand breakes.
