Term
| What happens during Ionizing Radiation ( uv rays, x-rays, gamma rays) |
|
Definition
-Strand breaks
-Ring openings
-Base modifications
-dna protein cross linking- dna becomes bound to certain proteins and can't let go if it needs to |
|
|
Term
| Describe pyrimidine dimers and name the most popular |
|
Definition
-most common are thymidine dimers
-found in Ionization radiation such as in Tanning beds
-thymines become bound to each other and DNA is bulky and unable to move |
