Additional Isomerase Inhibitors Small Molecules and Peptides

Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells possess multiple mechanisms to repair DNA and control damage to their genomes. These include base excision repair (BER) and nucleotide excision repair (NER) that excise and replace damaged nucleotide bases and helix-distorting lesions, respectively. Many of the enzymes involved in NER are also active in transcription-coupled repair (TCR) processes. In addition, mismatch repair (MMR) enzymes act to replace mismatched nucleotides and repair insertion/deletion ...
