The Excited State Dynamics of a Mutagenic Cytidine Etheno Adduct Investigated by Combining Time-Resolved Spectroscopy and Quantum Mechanical Calculations [PDF]
Joint femtosecond fluorescence upconversion experiments and theoretical calculations provide a hitherto unattained degree of characterization and understanding of the mutagenic etheno adduct 3,N4-etheno-2'-deoxycytidine ($\epsilon$dC) excited state relaxation. This endogenously formed lesion is attracting great interest because of its ubiquity in human

Mutations in Growth-Related Genes Induced by EMS Treatment in Scallops
Background: The goal of genetic breeding is to select variants with mutations that are related to expected traits, such as fast growth. Artificial induction has been widely used to obtain strains with more mutations for further selection ...

Food Irradiation: A call for caution
The irradiation method has been widely used in treating food for its many advantages, perhaps giving inadequate attention toits dark side. Based on many scientific studies, irradiation has a direct impact on food components, affecting the food’s ...

The use of mutagens in plant breeding is used to create new germplasm, increase agricultural yield, quality, and resistance to diseases and pests. Mutagens are physical or chemical factors that can alter the DNA or RNA structure of an organism, causing ...

Mutagen resistance and mutation restriction of St. Louis encephalitis virus.
The error rate of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of RNA viruses is important in maintaining genetic diversity for viral adaptation and fitness. Numerous studies have shown that mutagen-resistant RNA virus variants display amino acid mutations in

APOBEC3B enzymes are endogenous carcinogenic mutagens. Metastatic urothelial carcinomas often harbor APOBEC3B-mediated mutations in which tCw to T or G substitution occurs. Here, we evaluated patient survival and CD8+ T-cell density according to APOBEC3B

Designation of newly identified mutagen-sensitive mutations in Neurospora crassa and their linkage data [PDF]
Two years ago, Dr. Käfer and Dr. Schroeder independently summarized genetic information on mutagen-sensitive mutants in Neurospora crassa (Fungal Genetics Newsletter 35:11-13, 1988; DNA Repair 3:77-98, 1988).

Cytogenetic activity of a mutagenic factor with high damaging capacity in winter wheat
The analysis of cytological abnormalities is an important method for identifying the potential of a chemical as a mutagen for future heritable genetic changes, the level of genotype-mutagen interaction and site-specific activity for the nature and/or ...
