This book focuses on the clinical aspects of DNA repair disorders. Nucleotide excision repair is an important pathway for humans, as it is involved in biologically fundamental functions. This work presents clinical features together with the pathogenesis of DNA repair disorders such as Xertoderma Pigmentosum (XP). Studies on animal models are included as well. Clinical feature characteristics of each clinical subtype of XP are depicted according to the genotype, giving accurate and detailed information about the clinical features in terms of gene alterations, change of protein structure, and dysfunction in some of the repair pathways. This book is unique in that it provides detailed information on clinical features from more than 100 patients with XP-A, which is characterized by very severe manifestation of skin photosensitivity and neurological dysfunction. It will give readers important knowledge for understanding the concept and molecular mechanisms of DNA repair disorders. It also describes how to treat and care for patients with XP based on vast experience in clinical practice. DNA Repair Disorders will be a useful resource not only for physicians and basic scientists who are interested in and/or take care of patients with DNA repair disorders, but also dermatologists, neurologists, and researchers in the field of radiation biology and photobiology.

Since this book is geared to be used by varied groups of readers such as advanced students and instructors in the fields of biology and medicine, scientists and more importantly clinicians, it is considered important to provide brief accounts of the basics of DNA damage, repair, mutagenesis and cancer. The purpose of this book is to present an updated detailed account of some important additional diseases of DNA repair. It has not been possible to cover all the DNA repair deficient diseases in this volume, hence diseases such as Bloom’s syndrome, Werner’s syndrome, Nijmegen breakage syndrome, ataxia telangiectasia‐like disorder, RA D 50 deficiency, RIDDLE syndrome and others will be presented in a forthcoming volume.

This volume describes the elaborate surveillance systems and various DNA repair mechanisms that ensure accurate passage of genetic information onto daughter cells. In particular, it narrates how the cell cycle checkpoint and DNA repair machineries detect and restore DNA damages that are embedded in millions to billions of normal base pairs. The scope of the book ranges from biochemical analyses and structural details of DNA repair proteins, to integrative genomics and population-based studies. It provides a snapshot of current understanding about some of the major DNA repair pathways, including base-excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, mismatch repair, homologous recombination, and non-homologous end-joining as well as cell cycle checkpoints and translesion DNA synthesis. One of the particular emphases of the book is the link between inherited DNA repair deficiencies and susceptibility to cancer in the general population. For the first time, the book brings together a collection of review articles written by a group of active and laboratory-based investigators who have a clear understanding of the recent advances in the fields of DNA damage repair and genomic stability and their implications in carcinogenesis, new approaches in cancer therapy, and cancer prevention.

The DNA of all organisms is constantly being damaged by endogenous and exogenous sources. Oxygen metabolism generates reactive species that can damage DNA, proteins and other organic compounds in living cells. Exogenous sources include ionizing and ultraviolet radiations, carcinogenic compounds and environmental toxins among others. The discovery of multiple DNA lesions and DNA repair mechanisms showed the involvement of DNA damage and DNA repair in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, most notably cancer. These books provide a comprehensive overview of the interdisciplinary area of DNA damage and DNA repair, and their relevance to disease pathology. Edited by recognised leaders in the field, this two-volume set is an appealing resource to a variety of readers including chemists, chemical biologists, geneticists, cancer researchers and drug discovery scientists.

This book is intended for students and scientists working in the field of DNA repair, focusing on a number of topics ranging from DNA damaging agents and mechanistic insights to methods in DNA repair and insights into therapeutic strategies. These topics demonstrate how scientific ideas are developed, tested, dialogued, and matured as it is meant to discuss key concepts in DNA repair. The book should serve as a supplementary text in courses and seminars as well as a general reference for biologists with an interest in DNA repair.
