Molecular mechanisms and genomic maps of DNA excision repair in E.coli and humans [DNA and Chromosomes]

Nucleotide excision repair is a major DNA repair mechanism in all cellular organisms. In this repair system the DNA damage is removed by concerted dual incisions bracketing the damage and at precise distance from the damage. Here, we review the basic mechanisms of excision repair in E.coli and humans and the recent genome-wide mapping of DNA damage and repair in these organisms at single-nucleotide resolution.
