DNA repair within nucleosomes
Jonathan Weitzman(jonathanweitzman@hotmail.com) | Dec 10, 2000 | 1 min read
DNA lesions are repaired by a cut-and-remove process called nucleotide excision repair. An in vitro biochemically defined system has been developed in which six repair factors are sufficient to excise damage from naked DNA. In the December Molecular and Cellular Biology, Hara et al. use this system to examine the effect of DNA organization into nucleosome structures on the DNA repair process (Mol Cell Biol 2000, 20:9173-9181). A nucleosome structure was assembled by mixing human histone protein
