A Model of Photon Cell Killing Based on the Spatio-Temporal Clustering of DNA Damage in Higher Order Chromatin Structures
We present a new approach to model dose rate effects on cell killing after photon radiation based on the spatio-temporal clustering of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) within higher order chromatin structures of approximately 1–2 Mbp size, so called giant loops. The main concept of this approach cons...
