Repair of tandem base lesions in DNA by human cell extracts generates persisting single-strand breaks.

Clustered DNA damage, where two or more lesions are located proximal to each other on the same or opposite DNA strands, is frequently produced as a result of exposure to ionising radiation. It has been suggested that such complex damaged sites pose problems for repair pathways. In this study, we add...
