The incorporation of wrong bases by DNA polymerase I following gamma-irradiation of DNA-like templates.

The synthesis of polydeoxyribose polymers by Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I has been investigated with control and gamma-irradiated DNA-like polymer templates containing only two bases. The results show that irradiation of a poly(dA) strand leads to the incorporation of dG, whereas irradiation of poly(dC) and poly(dG) strands both lead to the incorporation of dA. Irradiation of poly(dT) does not lead to the incorporation of any wrong base. The wrong bases are incorporated into the complementary strand of the newly synthesised DNA.

Sorting:

Tables may be sorted by clicking on any of the column titles. A second click reverses the sort order. <Ctrl> + click on the column titles to sort by more than one column (e.g. family then name).

Filtering:

It is also possible to filter the table by typing into the search box above the table. This will instantly hide lines from the table that do not contain your search text.
