Abstract excerpt
Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) induces oxidative and nitrosative DNA damage, and previous studies by our group have shown that it is strongly mutagenic in the supF shuttle vector pSP189 replicated in Escherichia coli MBL50 cells. In those experiments, however, the pSP189 plasmid was exposed under unphysiological conditions to large single bolus doses of ONOO-, which limits extrapolation of the data to in vivo pathological...
