What is the difference between mismatch repair and nucleotide excision repair?
The differences are as follows: Mismatch repair DNA polymerase is the enzyme that is responsible for DNA replication. As it copies the the DNA, it can make mistakes. So, when the DNA is copied, mismatch repair proofreads it and makes sure that the nitrogenous bases are correct. If they aren't, then it will take out only the base. However, if the mismatch repair is not functioning, then humans can get some form of cancer. Excision repair This mechanism is caused by UV rays or some sort of harmful chemical. Excision repair fixes what portion may have been destroyed by these mutagens. It takes the entire strand and replaces it with a new one. However, if this mechanism doesn't work, then forms of skin cancers arise.
