Regulation of Error-Prone DNA Double-Strand Break Repair and Its Impact on Genome Evolution
Double-strand breaks are one of the most deleterious DNA lesions. Their repair via error-prone mechanisms can promote mutagenesis, loss of genetic information, and deregulation of the genome. These detrimental outcomes are significant drivers of human diseases, including many cancers. Mutagenic doub...
