Processing of clustered DNA damage generates additional double-strand breaks in mammalian cells post-irradiation.

Clustered DNA damage sites, in which two or more lesions are formed within a few helical turns of the DNA after passage of a single radiation track, are signatures of DNA modifications induced by ionizing radiation in mammalian cells. Mutant hamster cells (xrs-5), deficient in non-homologous end joi...
