Abstract excerpt
The effect of different regimes of lysine-pre treatment on mutation at the 3rd nucleotide base of codon 249 which is located at the 7th exon of p53 gene of Chang-liver cells (CCIL13) exposed to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) has been investigated. There is an indication of inhibition of 1 ug/ml AFB1--induced mutation by pretreatment of cells for 72 hr with 5-molar fold lysine equivalent of 1 ug/ml AFB1 1 u/g ml AFB1 was the...
