Hemos tenido el placer de recibir a Keith Caldecott en el CBM. Su charla abordó el papel de la actividad PARP en la reparación de roturas de ADN y su impacto en enfermedad humana, y los mecanismos clave para mantener la estabilidad del genoma y entender patologías asociadas.

While the leading strand is synthesized continuously, the lagging strand is copied in small fragments, the Okazaki fragments, requiring the ...
