Ce cours présente les principes fondamentaux à l'œuvre dans les organismes vivants. Autant que possible, l'accent est mis sur les contributions de l'Informatique aux progrès des Sciences de la Vie.
Covers mutations, classification, causes, and repair mechanisms of DNA, including spontaneous and induced mutations, replication errors, and DNA damage.
Explores DNA replication mechanisms, including speed, errors, proofreading, and semiconservative nature, emphasizing the importance of maintaining DNA fidelity through mismatch repair.
Explores p53's pivotal role in cellular stability, DNA repair, and tumor suppression, emphasizing TP53 mutations and DNA double-strand break repair mechanisms.
