DNA Damage, DNA Repair and Disease : Volume 2 Hardback
Edited by Miral (National Institute of Standards and Technology) Dizdaroglu, R Stephen (Oregon Health & Science University, USA) Lloyd
Part of the Chemical Biology series
Hardback
Description
The DNA of all organisms is constantly being damaged by endogenous and exogenous sources.
Oxygen metabolism generates reactive species that can damage DNA, proteins and other organic compounds in living cells.
Exogenous sources include ionizing and ultraviolet radiations, carcinogenic compounds and environmental toxins among others.
The discovery of multiple DNA lesions and DNA repair mechanisms showed the involvement of DNA damage and DNA repair in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, most notably cancer.
These books provide a comprehensive overview of the interdisciplinary area of DNA damage and DNA repair, and their relevance to disease pathology.
Edited by recognised leaders in the field, this two-volume set is an appealing resource to a variety of readers including chemists, chemical biologists, geneticists, cancer researchers and drug discovery scientists.
