Non‐homologous end joining (NHEJ) as the primary conserved DNA double‐strand break repair process in human cells. NHEJ, more like a multi‐component, multifunctional engine, functions mechanistically for its coordinated movements, assembles, and regulation. Like the old car engine malfunctioning without a linchpin and flexible belt, the NHEJ efficiency arises from a flexible conformational control principle. The NHEJ components were matched on the SKODA 100 car engine built in 1973 in Czechoslovakia. See article by Hammel and Tainer, pp. 1735–1756 .
