Abstract excerpt
Replication of the oxidative lesion 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (GO) leads to the formation of both 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine:adenine (GO:A) and 8-oxo-7,8-di-hydroguanine:cytosine (GO:C) pairs. The repair and mutagenic potency of these two kinds of base pairs were studied in simian COS7 and human MRC5V1 cells using the shuttle vector technology. Shuttle vectors carrying a unique GO residue opposite either a C or an A...
