Abstract excerpt
In previous work, we established that treatment with melphalan (L-phenylalanine mustard) produced a predominance of A.T-->T.A transversions in the Simian virus 40 (SV40)-based shuttle vector pZ189 during replication in human 293 cells. Mutations were induced with varying doses (4-12 microM) melphalan in the aprt gene of the hemizygous Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line D422 to determine whether a similar...
