Low Dose Ionizing Radiation Strongly Stimulates Insertional Mutagenesis in a γH2AX Dependent Manner
2019-04-19
Abstract excerpt
Extrachromosomal DNA can integrate into the genome with no sequence specificity producing an insertional mutation. This process, which is referred to as random integration (RI), requires a double stranded break (DSB) in the genome. Inducing DSBs by various means, including ionizing radiation, increases the frequency of integration. Here we report that non-lethal physiologically relevant doses of ionizing radiation...
