DNA damage and repair mechanism is vital for maintaining DNA integrity. Damage to cellular DNA is involved in mutagenesis, the development of cancer among others.
Cancer research has revealed that the classical model of carcinogenesis, a three step process consisting of initiation, promotion, and progression, is not complete.

What solvent is generally used to dissolve ENU? DMSO is ok?
1 answer-
The solubility of N3385 has been tested at 100 mg/mL in deuterated DMSO. The deuterated form of DMSO is more suitable for use in NMR, etc. The non-deuterated form of DMSO is sufficient for general use.
