C. DEAMINATION
D. PYRIMIDINE DIMERS
SUMMARY
• Discussed about the different types of DNA damage.
• Learned the various ways in which DNA repair is
conducted for all kinds of damage, such as dimers,
• Xeroderma Pigmentosum can be diagnosed by single and double strand DNA breaks.
o Skin Biopsy • Discussed the mechanism behind DNA
o Genetic Testing recombination.
▪ By giving a sample of the DNA to see if it has • Studied diseases relating to the dysfunction of DNA
a mutation in the genes involve in the repair.
