DNA repair genes: alternative transcription and gene expression at the exon level in response to the DNA damaging agent, ionizing radiation.
DNA repair is an essential cellular process required to maintain genomic stability. Every cell is subjected to thousands of DNA lesions daily under normal physiological conditions. Ionizing radiation (IR) is a major DNA damaging agent that can be produced by both natural and man-made sources. A comm...
