What Does CCM Stand For?

CCM stands for Chemical Cleavage Of Mismatch

CCM, or Chemical Cleavage Of Mismatch, is a molecular biology technique utilized to identify and analyze DNA mismatches within double-stranded DNA. This method involves the selective cleavage of mismatched base pairs using specific chemical agents, allowing researchers to distinguish between correctly paired and incorrectly paired nucleotides. CCM is particularly valuable in studies of genetic mutations, DNA repair mechanisms, and the development of targeted gene therapies. Its precision in detecting mismatches contributes to a deeper understanding of genetic stability and variability.
