Abstract excerpt
In some biological systems ionizing radiation appears to induce large deletions and rearrangements, while in others point mutations predominate the mutational spectrum. Moreover, while the point mutations are often randomly distributed, some systems exhibit "hot spots." Retroviral shuttle vectors...
