Generation of a strong mutator phenotype in yeast by imbalanced base excision repair

Increased spontaneous mutation is associated with increased cancer risk. Here, by using a model system, we show that spontaneous mutation can be increased several hundred-fold by a simple imbalance between the first two enzymes involved in DNA base excision repair. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae MAG1...
