For 10 points, name this process in which cells fix the damage done to a certain double helical molecule.
This process uses the RecA protein during the SOS response. This process is deficient in a hereditary variant of colon cancer called Lynch syndrome. One type of this process uses the MutS protein and another type uses AP endonuclease. Lindahl, Modrich, and Sancar won the 2015 Nobel Prize for their studies of this process. UV radiation and free radicals necessitate this process, which includes non-homologous end joining and nucleotide excision types.
