Involvement of global genome repair, transcription coupled repair, and chromatin remodeling in UV DNA damage response changes during development.

Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER), which removes a variety of helix-distorting lesions from DNA, is initiated by two distinct DNA damage-sensing mechanisms. Transcription Coupled Repair (TCR) removes damage from the active strand of transcribed genes and depends on the SWI/SNF family protein CSB. Glo...
