Spontaneous mutation at the mtr locus in neurospora: the molecular spectrum in wild-type and a mutator strain.

Genetics - 1 Sept 1994

Dillon D, Stadler D

Abstract excerpt

Sequence analysis of 34 mtr mutations has yielded the first molecular spectrum of spontaneous mutants in Neurospora crassa. The great majority of the mutations are base substitutions (48%) or deletions (35%). In addition, sequence analysis of the entire mtr region, including the 1472-base pair open reading frame and 1205 base pairs of flanking DNA, was performed in both the Oak Ridge and Mauriceville strains of...
