DNA Damage and Repair in Human Skin: Pathways and Questionsmoters, and modifiers of biological responses to such agents. DNA is the principal target for most carcinogens, and DNA in skin is particularly at risk. It is subject to damage not only from ingested compounds and their metabolic products, but also from externally applied or encountered chemicals, a

The repair of these DNA lesions has been widely studied in the recent past (Sutherland et al., 1980) but relatively little information is available on DNA repair in situ in h

Damage Specific Mammalian Endonucleasesmoved. Modified bases in DNA can be excised from DNA by different repair pathways. The process of excision repair involves four major steps: incision, excision, DNA synthesis, and ligation of the repaired sequence. The enzymes responsible for the first step in this scheme are damage-specific enzymes

There has been a rapid increase in our knowledge of DNA damage and repair mechanisms over the last several years, using the tools of mol

Most of the mechanisms which have been proposed for the repair of various types of damage in human cells has been based upon prokaryotic models (Friedberg, 1985); however, our knowledge of DNA repair processes in human cells is not

Variability in DNA Repair in Human Skinigher incidence in individuals who spend more time outdoors (Urbach et al., 1972) point to the sun as a major etiologic agent. For melanoma, there is a good correlation of rates of mortality with latitude (Mason and Mckay, 1974). However, the relationship between solar UV radiation exposure and cutaneous melanoma is not simple (Sober, 1987).
