Mutagenesis - 1 Sept 1994

Abstract excerpt
Mutations in mammalian genomes are the result of several mutagenic processes that are intrinsic to cell metabolism. Analysis of the mutation spectrum of a chromosomal gene is a valuable tool for assessing the contribution of these mechanisms to mutagenesis in the cell. We have studied the specificity of mutations induced by various mutagens in a cDNA hprt gene integrated in a chromosome of a mouse cell line. To...
