As I mentioned earlier, mutations in your NER or more specifically your GG-NER is responsible for genetics diseases such as XP. This disease is mostly linked with the inability to repair cells that contain photoproducts in your DNA that is initiated by UV light. These photoproducts include the (5–5) and (6–6) cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and the (6–4) pyrimidine pyrimidinone dimers (PDs) that can involve T and C pyrimidines [7]. As these DNA are not repaired due to the lack of NER proteins, a mutation will occur which will substitute a Cytosine base to a Thymine base, it is most common when there are two Cytosine bases next to each other where it will go from CC to TT. This is very commonly found in protein p53. Patients with XP-C

Over time, specific brands become associated with particular attributes, in terms of product category, positioning, price, and in the case of cars their styling, design and the lifestyle attributes that are associated with that vehicle. The Mustang has gone through roughly five iterations, and is currently in its fifth generation (Markus, 2010).
