Very short patch repair of T:G mismatches in vivo: importance of context and accessory proteins.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Feb 1995

Lieb M, Rehmat S

Abstract excerpt

In Escherichia coli, T:G mismatches in specific contexts are corrected by a very short patch (VSP) repair system. Previous studies have shown that the product of gene vsr mediates correction of T:G to C:G in the 5'CTAGG/3'GGTCC context and in some related contexts. Amber mutations that arose in CAG sequences in gene cI of bacteriophage lambda were used to determine the effect of flanking bases on the repair of...
