DNA Bending Propensity in the Presence of Base Mismatches: Implications for DNA Repair
Understanding how the human body recognizes damaged DNA and initiates repair fascinates Michael Feig, professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at Michigan State University. Feig studies the proteins MutS and MSH2-MSH6, which recognize defective DNA and initiate DNA repair. Natural DNA repa...Tags: DNA Repair, DNA Bending, Research, Cancer
