Expression of DNA repair and apoptosis genes in mitochondrial mutant and normal cells following exposure to ionizing radiation

In double-strand DNA damage repair, nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) is more error-prone than homologous recombination repair (HRR), indicating that the relative prevalence of NHEJ may lead to more incorrect repair and thus to increases in chromosome damage. If DNA damage is extensive and cells are...
