It covers types and causes of DNA mutations, mechanisms of DNA damage, and major DNA repair pathways, including base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, mismatch repair, and double-strand break repair. The text also discusses the biological consequences of mutations and the importance of DNA repair in preventing diseases like cancer.
