Abstract excerpt
Comparison of results derived from transgenic animal gene-mutation assays with those from mutation analyses in endogenous genes is an important step in the validation of the former. We have used lambda lacZ transgenic mice to study alkylation-induced mutagenesis in vivo in (a) lacZ and hprt in sp...
