Abstract excerpt
G:C sites distant from 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (GO, 8-hydroxyguanine) are frequently mutated when the lesion-bearing plasmid DNA is replicated in human cells with reduced Werner syndrome (WRN) protein. To detect the untargeted mutations preferentially, the oxidised guanine base was placed downstream of the reporter supF gene and the plasmid DNA was introduced into WRN-knockdown cells. The total mutant frequency...
