Escherichia coli nucleoside diphosphate kinase mutants depend on translesion DNA synthesis to prevent mutagenesis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Sept 2011

Nordman Jared, Wright Andrew

Abstract excerpt

Escherichia coli nucleoside diphosphate (NDP) kinase mutants have an increased frequency of spontaneous mutation, possibly due to uracil misincorporation into DNA. Here we show that NDP kinase mutants are dependent on translesion DNA synthesis, often a mutagenic form of DNA synthesis, to prevent mutagenesis.
