Abstract excerpt
Mutator enzymes alter the nucleotide sequences of DNA or RNA molecules; immune systems utilize them to destroy the integrity of pathogen genomes and to optimize immune mediators of the host. Their dysregulation has been linked to tumorigenesis in various tissues. Defining and comparing the activities of such mutator enzymes requires a robust versatile assay that is independent of their biological context as in...
