Single-cell whole-genome sequencing reveals mutational landscapes of DNA mismatch repair deficiency in mouse primary fibroblasts
2019-06-12
Abstract excerpt
DNA Mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency is a major cause of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer, and is also associated with increased risk of several other cancers. This is generally ascribed to the role of MMR in avoiding mutations by correcting DNA replication errors. In MMR knockout mice very high frequencies of somatic mutations, up until 100-fold of background, have been reported. However, these results...
