<i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> has been extensively used as a model system to study ionizing radiation and chemical-induced mutagenesis, double-strand break repair, and recombination. However, there are only limited studies on nucleotide excision repair in this important model organism. An early study reported that <i>Drosophila</i> lacks the transcription-coupled repair (TCR) form of nucleotide excision repair. This conclusion was seemingly supported by the <i>Drosophila</i> genome sequencing p ...[more]
