Acetylaminofluorene bound to different guanines of the sequence -GGCGCC- is excised with different efficiencies by the UvrABC excision nuclease in a pattern not correlated to the potency of mutation induction.

Abstract excerpt
DNA fragments were constructed in which acetylaminofluorene adducts were introduced specifically at each one of the three different guanines of the 6-base-pair sequence -GGCGCC-. Incubation of the DNA with the UvrABC excision nuclease in vitro revealed major differences in the efficiency of adduc...
