Abstract excerpt
Mutagenesis by C-to-U events specifically in either DNA strand assayed with ung uvrA defective Escherichia coli on a metabolically restrictive medium produces more glutamine tRNA suppressor mutations from U occurring in the non-transcribed DNA strand than from U in the transcribed (template) DNA strand. This bias is the reverse of what might be expected from transcriptional mutagenesis (mutation expression...
