Outline of Final Research Achievements |
DNA double strand break (DSB) is one of the most serious DNA damage which is often induced by ionizing radiation. To clarify whether DSB repair occurs during just before the cell division stage or not, we developed a site- and time-specific DSB induction system. By using the system, we tried to see the DSB-localizing proteins following DNA damage induction. The experiments are still in progress, but a part of our findings has been published in a scientific journal.
