Mutational specificity of mice defective in the MTH1 and/or the MSH2 genes

Oxidative damage of nucleotides within DNA or precursor pools caused by oxygen radicals is thought to play an important role in spontaneous mutagenesis, as well as carcinogenesis and aging. In particular, 8-oxodGTP and 2-OHdATP are potent mutagenic substrate for DNA synthesis. Mammalian MTH1 catalyz...
