Abstract excerpt
To supplement a previous analysis of spontaneous tandem-base mutations (TBM) in the lacI gene of Big Blue((R)) mice, 2658 additional mutants were sequenced from 13 tissues and 44 spontaneous TBM were identified (tripling the sample size). Previous findings were confirmed and generalized and several new observations were made. TBM differ from single and other double mutations in that TBM frequency varies...
