Lost in transcription: transient errors in information transfer.

Abstract excerpt

Errors in information transfer from DNA to RNA to protein are inevitable. Here, we focus on errors that occur in nascent transcripts during transcription, epimutations. Recent approaches using novel cDNA library preparation and next-generation sequencing begin to directly determine the rate of epimutation and allow analysis of the epimutational spectrum of transcription errors, the type and sequence context of...
