Abstract excerpt
Four kinds of oxidatively damaged DNA precursors, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate (8-OH-dGTP), 2-hydroxydeoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate (2-OH-dATP), 5-hydroxydeoxycytidine 5'-triphosphate (5-OH-dCTP) and 5-formyldeoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate (5-CHO-dUTP), were employed in in vitro gap-filling reactions of the supF gene conducted by the Escherichia coli DNA polymerase III holoenzyme, and these treated DNAs...
