Abstract excerpt
This paper reviews the influence of DNA repair on spontaneous and mutagen-induced mutation spectra at the base-substitution (hisG46) and -1 frameshift (hisD3052) alleles present in strains of the Salmonella (Ames) mutagenicity assay. At the frameshift allele (mostly a CGCGCGCG target), DeltauvrB influences the frequency of spontaneous hotspot mutations (-CG), duplications, and deletions, and it also shifts the...
