I2: The final step in "base editing" requires the cell's normal DNA repair machinery to correct the pairing shown above. Given your knowledge of DNA repair, name the repair pathway that would act on the DNA molecule above, and describe all of the steps and proteins involved in this repair pathway. (Hint: Since DNA replication has already been completed in this case, "proofreading" is not the correct answer.)
