Investigation of ultraviolet radiation-induced DNA damage and repair in human skin cells
UVR, by initiating the DNA damage, can lead to mutagenesis and is regarded as the prime cause of most skin cancers. Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD) are an important form of DNA damage induced by both UVA and UVB and removed by nucleotide excision repair. Classically, the repair of CPDs is report...
