Abstract excerpt
In previously reported studies, we transfected repair-proficient murine fibroblasts with the denV gene of bacteriophage T4 and showed that expression of encoded endonuclease V markedly enhanced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) repair and reduced the frequency of ultraviolet radiation (UV)-induced mutations. In the present studies, we compared the spectra of UV-induced mutations at the hprt locus in...
