Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The mechanism of DNA repair involves a group of proteins like DNA polymerase and DNA ligase after the digestion of enzyme with nucleases. The nuclease enzyme degrades and breaks the DNA chromatin in various fragments. This degradation causes the conversion of adenine to hypoxanthine
