Comparative evaluation of antimutagenic and antimitotic effects of Morchella esculenta extracts and protocatechuic acid [PDF]
Morchella esculenta (L.) Pers. methanolic extracts, obtained from fruiting bodies growing wild in Serbia and Portugal, were screened for their antimutagenic properties and compared to protocatechuic acid, previously identified in both species. Salmonella

Absence of genotoxic effects of the chalcone (E)-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(4-methylphenyl)-prop-2-en-1-one) and its potential chemoprevention against DNA damage using in vitro and in vivo assays. [PDF]
The chalcone (E)-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(4-methylphenyl)-prop-2-en-1-one), or 2HMC, displays antileishmanial, antimalarial, and antioxidant activities. The aim of this study was to investigate the cytotoxic, genotoxic, mutagenic, and protective effects of

Reduction in squamous cell carcinomas in mouse skin by dietary zinc supplementation. [PDF]
Inadequate dietary Zn consumption increases susceptibility to esophageal and other cancers in humans and model organisms. Since Zn supplementation can prevent cancers in rodent squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) models, we were interested in determining if it

Synthesis and Reaction of 3-Fluoro-4-nitroquinoline 1-Oxide
3-Fluoroquinoline 1-oxide, which was prepared through the Schiemann reaction of 3-aminoquinoline, followed by N-oxygenation, was nitrated to 3-fluoro-4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide. The fluorine atom of this compound was replaced with nucleophiles such as OR- or NR2-containing compounds in neutral or alkaline media to afford 3-substituted 4-nitroquinoline 1 ...

The Genetic Basis of Mutation Rate Variation in Yeast. [PDF]
Mutations are the root source of genetic variation and underlie the process of evolution. Although the rates at which mutations occur vary considerably between species, little is known about differences within species, or the genetic and molecular basis ...

Identification and dissection of a complex DNA repair sensitivity phenotype in Baker's yeast. [PDF]
Complex traits typically involve the contribution of multiple gene variants. In this study, we took advantage of a high-density genotyping analysis of the BY (S288c) and RM strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and of 123 derived spore progeny to identify ...
