This video has several problems. It does not seem to be a continuation of the previous ones, it has unclear information, the reparation itself is not explained, and the name dropping doesn't help either.
The DNA Repair lecture was not very clear at all.
Care for details and passion/curiosity for knowledge are seen in this lecture. I gained a lot from it.
Very profesional, why is it said that bacterial chromosome has a single origin of replication and eukaryotic multiple origins
