Abstract excerpt
The Escherichia coli dnaE and dnaQ genes encode, respectively, the alpha (polymerase) and epsilon (proofreading) subunits of DNA polymerase III. Mutations in these genes resulting in mutator or antimutator phenotypes provide important tools to understand the mechanisms by which mutations occur. O...
