DNA Repair Imaging Services
In the whole life cycle of a cell, its genome is affected by factors such as its own metabolites, mutagens, and radiation, which can cause damage to single-strand and double-strand breaks. DNA repair can protect the genome from various damages and maintain the integrity of genes. In this process, instant and reliable signal transduction and repair of break sites are essential to prevent mutations that cause cancer. Therefore, imaging analysis of the DNA repair process is necessary.

DNA Repair Imaging Analysis
Traditionally, immunocytochemistry has been used to study the main pathways of DNA repair. However, the coordination mechanism of different repair components and repair pathways with other cellular processes is still unclear. Therefore, a complete description of DNA repair at the single-cell or single-molecule level is required. Fluorescence imaging technology is an effective tool for the study of DNA damage response pathways, which can provide biological evidence of DNA repair deletion in cells.
CD BioSciences has been committed to the research and development of fluorescent probes and imaging technology for many years. We can quantitatively describe DNA repair in single cells through fluorescence imaging. In addition, we can directly observe the repair process of a single DNA molecule.
