DNA Repair Efficiency

Meaning

DNA Repair Efficiency quantifies the rate and fidelity with which cellular machinery identifies and corrects endogenous or exogenous damage to the genomic structure, including strand breaks and base modifications. High efficiency is paramount for maintaining genomic stability and preventing oncogenesis or accelerated cellular senescence. This metric reflects the cell’s capacity to maintain the integrity of its genetic blueprint over time. It is a fundamental biomarker of biological resilience.
