Abstract excerpt
Complex processes such as transcription, replication, repair, and recombination require changes in chromatin structure and the interactions of numerous trans-acting factors with DNA sequences, raising the possibility that these processes may be interrelated. Here the effect of transcription on the rate of spontaneous mutation in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was examined. With the use of a lys2 frameshift...
