Effects of environmental exposure: Interplay between helix-distorting and oxidative DNA lesions and their repair

DNA lesions are introduced in all living organisms every day, both via endogenous processes and by exposure to an array of DNA damaging agents. DNA lesions require repair for the sustenance of life. Base excision repair (BER) and nucleotide excision repair (NER) are DNA repair pathways involved in r...
