Lecturer :  Yvette Habraken
Language(s) of instruction :  
French language
Course contents :  
The numerous facets of the DNA damage response (DDR) are presented.
The following points are detailed
-nature of the DNA lesions induced by endogenous or exogenous stresses
-repair systems (photolyase, MGMT, BER, NER, MMR, single- and double-strand break repair).
-signaling cascades controlled by ATM and ATR kinases
-translesion polymerases
Learning outcomes of the course :  
The objectives of this course are to give the student a overview of the DDR in order to understand its importance in many cellular process.
Such as: -the balance between life and death signals upon a genotoxic stress situation.
- the importance of DDR to prevent cancer developpement

- importance of the DDR in genotoxic cancer therapies
