      DNA polymerase III mis-insertion may, where not corrected by its 3′→ 5′ exonuclease or the mismatch repair (MMR) function, result in all possible non-cognate base pairs in DNA generating base substitutions. The most ...
    • Base excision repair of N4,5-dimethylcytosine in DNA 

      Arshad, Aysha (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-07-13)
      5-Methylcytosine (m5C) replaces cytosine (C) in DNA in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells to execute a number of important cellular functions, but damage to m5C have received little attention. For instance, almost no studies ...
