A novel pathway for transversion mutation induced by dCTP misincorporation in a mutator strain of CHO cells.

Intracellular imbalances of dCTP produce both T----C transitions and an unusual class of transversions (A----C) at the aprt locus of CHO cells. Our data suggest that this transversion pathway is the consequence of dCTP:T mispairs which are not efficiently proofread during DNA replication.
