Short-Sequence Tandem and Nontandem DNA Repeats and Endogenous Hydrogen Peroxide Production Contribute to Genetic Instability of Streptococcus pneumoniae

Loss-of-function mutations in the following seven pneumococcal genes were detected and analyzed: pspA, spxB, xba, licD2, lytA, nanA, and atpC. Factors associated with these mutations included (i) frameshifts caused by reversible gain and loss of single bases within homopolymeric repeats as short as...
