Replication stress induces micronuclei comprising of aggregated DNA double-strand breaks.
<h4>Background</h4>Micronuclei (MN) in mammalian cells serve as a reliable biomarker of genomic instability and genotoxic exposure. Elevation of MN is commonly observed in cells bearing intrinsic genomic instability and in normal cells exposed to genotoxic agents. DNA double-strand break...
