Description
SPRINGER Dna Damage And Repair by NICKOLOFF
Jac A. Nickoloff and Merl F. Hoekstra update and expand their two earlier acclaimed volumes (Vol. I: DNA Repair in Prokaryotes and Lower Eukaryotes and Vol. II: DNA Repair in Higher Eurkaryotes) with cutting-edge reviews by leading authorities of primary experimental findings about DNA repair processes in cancer biology. The reviews cover a wide range of topics from viruses and prokaryotes to higher eukaryotes, and include several new topics, among them the role of recombination in replication of damaged DNA, X-ray crystallographic analysis of DNA repair protein structures, DNA repair proteins and teleomere function, and the roles of BRCA1 and BRCA2 in DNA repair. Authoritative and up-to-date, DNA Damage and Repair, Vol. III: Advances from Phage to Humans surveys the rapidly moving research in DNA damage and repair, and explains the important functional relationships among different DNA repair pathways and the relationship between DNA repair pathways, cancer etiology, and cancer therapies. DNA Repair in Bacteriophage, Carol Bernstein and Harris Bernstein. Post-Replication Repair: A New Perspective Focusing on the Coordination Between Recombination and DNA Replication, Steven J. Sandler. A basic Site Repair in Higher Eukaryotes, Phyllis R. Strauss and Noreen E. O'Regan. Structure and Functions of the Major Human AP Endonuclease HAP1/Ref-1, Ian D. Hickson, Michael A.
