Question

Who has access to the human DNA sequence?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the hereditary material that undergoes replication which is vital for the cell division and cell maintenance. During replication, there may be chances of accidental lesions that occur during continuous DNA duplications. These changes or breaks are immediately corrected by a set of processes called ‘DNA repair’. Without repair systems, a genome would not be able to maintain its essential cellular functions.
