Abstract

Genetic instability is the driver of cancer initiation and progression. The human single stranded DNA binding protein 2 is known to be involved in the prevention of such genetic instability. This project has highlighted how human single stranded DNA binding protein 2 is involved in a particular DNA repair pathway called, base excision repair. The researcher identified the role of human single stranded DNA binding protein 2 in the removal of uracils that have been added by mistake to the human genome. This project details the mechanism by which uracils are removed from the genome, shedding light on the evolution of the cancer genome and the mechanism through which genetic stability can occur.
