Abstract excerpt
We have determined the frequency and spectrum of spontaneous mutations at the hprt locus in LoVo, HCT116, LS180 and DLD-1 colon carcinoma cell lines exhibiting microsatellite genetic instability. Each cell line has a different mutator gene. LoVo and HCT116 cells have mutated hMSH2 and hMLH1 genes...
