Genome Stability: DNA Repair and Recombination explores the various mechanisms by which DNA damage is repaired through recombination, focusing particularly on the repair of chromosomal breaks. The book provides a comprehensive history of the development of molecular models for DNA repair, with an emphasis on the latest research. It introduces key players in recombination and offers an overview of the four main pathways of homologous recombinational repair, followed by a detailed discussion of nonhomologous end-joining mechanisms. Intended as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in molecular biology and genetics, the book also serves as a valuable reference for researchers and professionals, especially those working in cancer biology.
