Correction of frameshift mutations with tailed duplex DNAs.
Tailed duplex (TD) DNAs, prepared by annealing an oligonucleotide to a several-hundred-base single-stranded (ss) DNA fragment, correct a base-substitution mutation with high efficiency. In the present study, the abilities of TD fragments to correct single-base insertion and deletion mutations were examined, using hygromycin-resistance and enhanced green fluorescent protein fusion (Hyg-EGFP) gen...
متن کاملFunctional divergence of proteins through frameshift mutations.
Frameshift mutations are generally considered to be deleterious and of little importance for the evolution of novel gene functions. However, by screening an exhaustive set of vertebrate gene families, we found that, when a second transcript encoding the original gene product compensates for this mutation, frameshift mutations can be retained for millions of years and enable new gene functions t...
متن کاملReversion of Frameshift Mutations Stimulated by Lesions
Temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants representative of a number of genes of phage T4 were crossed with rII mutants to allow isolation of ts, rII double-mutant recombinants. The rl mutations used were characterized as frameshift mutations primarily on the basis of their revertability by proflavine. For each ts, rII double mutant, the effect of the ts mutation on spontaneous reversion of the rII mu...

متن کاملOvarian cancer genomic instability correlates with p53 frameshift mutations.
We hypothesize that genomic instability plays an important role in causing specific types of p53 mutations in ovarian cancer. To test this hypothesis, 78 tumors were analyzed for p53 mutations with SSCP analysis of the entire open reading frame. At the same time, alterations in 10 microsatellite loci including di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide repeats were evaluated. Fourteen (26%) of all mutation...
