Abstract excerpt
The shuttle vector pS189 was treated with each of the four configurational isomers of benzo[c]phenanthrene 3,4-dihydrodiol 1,2-epoxide, and the modified DNA was used as a template in a polymerase arrest assay examining the supF gene. Sites at which polymerase (Sequenase, version 2.0) progress along the template was blocked were presumed to be at or near sites of adduct formation. The polymerase arrest sites were...
