Abstract excerpt
The nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PADPRP) is thought to play a role in DNA recombination, replication, and repair. In view of the implication of these processes in tumorigenesis, and based on preliminary evidence which indicated the presence of an extraneous polymorphic restriction fragment for murine PADPRP loci in strains of mice susceptible to plasmacytomas, we investigated correlations between...
