Frequency of Deletions among Spontaneous and Induced Mutations in Salmonella.
zoon coccoides has not been studied. The possibility that our tissue cultures from resistant mice are resistant because of latent infection in the mice themselves seems quite remote. The factors should not, in this case, segregate in a Mendelian fashion, and latent infection of young or newborn mice has not been reported in these infections. Summary.-A virulent strain of mouse hepatitis virus i...
متن کاملA new Salmonella tester strain (TA102) with A X T base pairs at the site of mutation detects oxidative mutagens.
A new tester strain, TA102, is described as an addition to the set of strains for the Salmonella/microsome mutagenicity test. This strain contains A X T base pairs at the site of the mutation (determined by DNA sequence analysis) in contrast to the other Salmonella tester strains that detect mutagens damaging G X C base pairs. This strain differs from previous tester strains in that the mutatio...
متن کاملSpontaneous and mutagen induced sister chromatid exchange in multiple sclerosis.
Spontaneous and mutagen induced sister chromatid exchange (SCE) frequencies have been studied in nine patients with multiple sclerosis and in nine age and sex matched healthy controls. The incidence of spontaneous SCE in lymphocytes of the MS patients was significantly greater, by about 50%, than in those of the control subjects. When exposed to mitomycin C (MMC) or ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS...
متن کاملInefficiency of Ames Tester Strains to Detect Sodium (meta) Arsenite as a Mutagen
Arsenic is a well-known toxic and carcinogenic metalloid distributed all over the world causing serious health threats via drinking water. The present study was performed to evaluate the mutagenic potential of Sodium(meta)arsenite in the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Assay using five tester strains of Salmonella typhimurium TA1537, TA1535, TA98, TA100 and TA102. Sodium(meta)arsenite was not detect...
متن کاملEstablishment of a Salmonella tester strain highly sensitive to mutagenic heterocyclic amines.
Heterocyclic amines (HCAs) that are present in cooked foods require metabolic activation to exert their genotoxicity. They undergo activation via N-hydroxylation by cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2), followed by O-esterification by O-acetyltransferase (OAT). To develop a Salmonella tester strain that is highly sensitive to mutagenic HCAs, we introduced a coexpression plasmid (p1A2OR) carrying human ...
