Abstract excerpt
To determine the type of mutation induced by 8-hydroxyguanine in a mammalian system, we examined the mutations induced by a synthetic c-Ha-ras protooncogene containing 8-hydroxyguanine in the second position of codon 12 (GGC) in NIH3T3 cells. Transfection of this gene significantly increased the number of transformed foci. The c-Ha-ras gene present in these foci was analyzed by the polymerase chain...
