Induction of microsatellite instability by oxidative DNA damage
13 Oct 1998
Abstract excerpt
Instability of repetitive sequences, both in intronic sequences and within coding regions, has been demonstrated to be a hallmark of genomic instability in human cancer. Understanding how these mutational events arise may provide an opportunity for prevention or early intervention in cancer development. To study the source of this instability, we have identified a region of the beta-lactamase gene that is...
