DNA Protection Protein, a Novel Mechanism of Radiation Tolerance: Lessons from Tardigrades
Genomic DNA stores all genetic information and is indispensable for maintenance of normal cellular activity and propagation. Radiation causes severe DNA lesions, including double-strand breaks, and leads to genome instability and even lethality. Regardless of the toxicity of radiation, some organism...
