Abstract excerpt
The frequency of spontaneous and ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced mutation at the hprt locus was determined in control and denV-transfected, repair-proficient murine fibroblasts. Control cells removed an average of 25% of pyrimidine dimers induced by exposure to 150 J/m2 UVR from an FS40 sunla...
