title: [Role of DNA damage in the formation of radiation damage to chromosomes].
abstract: The data are reviewed on the role of various DNA lesions in the formation of structural damages to chromosomes. The concepts are developed that the molecular damages to nuclear DNA induce chromosome mutagenesis.
