Abstract excerpt
Understanding the significance of somatic mutations requires knowledge of the mutations that occur in vivo in healthy people. The molecular characterization of mutations in the hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (hprt) gene in 217 independent T-lymphocyte mutants from 172 donors, including sm...
