Researchers discover key aspects involved in DNA repair mechanism

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have identified key aspects within the mechanism behind DNA repair in our bodies. For the primary time, they showed that the “proofreading” portion of the DNA replicating enzyme polymerase epsilon ensured secure termination of replication at damaged portions of the DNA strand, ultimately saving DNA from severe damage. This recent […]
