NOVEL MECHANISM LEADING TO MISMATCH REPAIR DEFICIENCY AND MUTATOR PHENOTYPE

DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is a critical genome-maintenance system. It ensures genome stability by correcting mismatches generated during DNA replication, suppressing homologous recombination, and inducing apoptosis in response to severe DNA damage. As a result, defects in MMR lead to genome-wide mut...
