How cells repair damage to DNA

Structure of the complex formed between MutY and damaged DNA. This image shows the enzyme MutY scanning damaged DNA in preparation for repair. MutY (shown in multiple colors) wraps itself around a molecule of damaged DNA (shown in gold). The damage is represented as red and purple cylinders. MutY removes the damaged portion (purple cylinder) from the double helix. (Illustration by J. Christopher Fromme)

All Types of Alcoholic Beverages Could Increase Risk of Colorectal Cancer
