User notes

  • 2 kinds of mutagenic action leads to 5BU-directed base-pair transitions
    • errors of incorporation = rare substitutions of 5BU for cytosine (results in the formation of an AT pair instead of a GC pair)
    • errors of replication = 5BU pairs with guanine instead of adenine (result in substitution of a GC pair instead of an AT pair)
