Workshop on DNA repair

Plant DNA repair and recombination on the French Mediterranean. Workshop on plant DNA repair & recombination.

Workshop on eukaryotic DNA repair genes and gene products.

In the last few years, studies on the molecular biology of DNA repair in eukaryotes have made dramatic progress. Many DNA repair genes have now been cloned from both yeasts and mammalian cells. As well as underlining the high level of evolutionary conservation of DNA repairgenes,this work hasrevealedunanticipatedrelationships between DNA repair and other fundamental processessuch as tran script...

Frontiers of mutagenesis and DNA repair: a workshop.

The Chemical Pathology Study Section, Center for Scientific Review, NIH hosted a 1-day workshop in Ventura, California, in the winter of 2003. There were 32 invited participants including invited speakers. The workshop consisted of three sessions and focused on recent developments in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of mutagenesis and DNA repair, namely, error-prone DNA polymerases...

DNA-Repair Capacity in Down\'s Syndrome

Down's syndrome (DS) is the most common chromosomal abnormality in human. Subjects with DS are known to be peridisposed to develop leukemia. The molecular basis of the association between DS and leukemia is unknown. The unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) test measure the ability of DNA-repair in mammalian cells after excision of a stretch of DNA containing the region of damage induced by chemical ...

New areas of focus at workshop on human diseases involving DNA repair deficiency and premature aging.

Researchers and clinicians interested in human diseases of DNA repair deficiency and premature aging gathered at the National Conference Center in Lansdowne, Virginia on 5-8 September 2006 to attend a workshop co-organized by Vilhelm Bohr (National Institute of Aging) and Kenneth Kraemer (National Cancer Institute). An important feature of this workshop was the participation of representatives ...
