Abstract
Strategies for the generation of gene-targeted mice have been available for 15 years and more than 100 different genes relevant to DNA repair have been targeted. This review describes some important progress made toward understanding spontaneous DNA damage and its repair, exemplified through one, or a few, gene-targeted mice from each major DNA repair pathway.
