Abstract excerpt
The mutagenic effects of 2-aminopurine (2AP) have been compared in the adenine-3 (ad-3) region of two-component heterokaryons of Neurospora crassa: nucleotide excision repair-proficient (uvs-2+/uvs-2+) heterokaryon 12 (H-12) and nucleotide excision repair-deficient (uvs-2/uvs-2) heterokaryon 59 (H-59). This forward-mutation, morphological and biochemical, specific-locus assay system permits the recovery of ad-3A...
