Name | error-free postreplication DNA repair |
ID | GO_0042275 |
collection_id | Biological process |
Exact synonym | error-free PRR |
Description | The conversion of DNA-damage induced single-stranded gaps into large molecular weight DNA via processes such as template switching, which does not remove the replication-blocking lesions but does not increase the endogenous mutation rate. |
Related synonym | error-free replication restart |
Comment | Note that 'error-free' does not mean that literally zero errors occur during DNA synthesis, but that the error rate is low, comparable to that of DNA synthesis during replication. |
