## Abstract DNA damage by agents crosslinking the strands presents a formidable challenge to the cell to repair for survival and to repair accurately for maintenance of genetic information. It appears that repair of DNA crosslinks occurs in a path involving double strand breaks (DSBs) in the DNA. M

## Abstract DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) are induced by a number of bifunctional antitumor drugs such as cisplatin, mitomycin C, or the nitrogen mustards as well as endogenous agents formed by lipid peroxidation. The repair of ICLs requires the coordinated interplay of a number of genome maint
Mitomycin C (MMC) is a DNA crosslinking agent from human Xeroderma Pigmentosum (XP) complethat is used in cancer chemotherapy. Unlike the mentation group A and E cell lines, and a Fanconi's DNA crosslinks formed by cisplatin or psoralen, Anemia cell line were also examined. The UV-20 which significa
## Abstract Host cell reactivation assay using Trioxsalenβcrosslinked plasmid pEGFPβN1 showed that human cells were able to repair Trioxsalen interstrand crosslinks (ICL). To study the mechanism of this repair pathway, cells were transfected with the plasmids pEGFPβ1, which did not contain the prom
