  • Title: Mutator activity in Schizophyllum commune.
    Author: Shneyour Y, Koltin Y.
    Journal: Mutat Res; 1983 Jan; 107(1):41-51. PubMed ID: 6687487.
    Abstract:
    A strain with an elevated level of spontaneous mutations and an especially high rate of reversion at a specific locus (pab-) was identified. The mutator trait is recessive. UV sensitivity and the absence of a UV-specific endonucleolytic activity were associated with the enhancement of the mutation rate in mutator strains. The endonuclease associated with the regulation of the mutation rate also acted on single-stranded DNA. The molecular weight of this enzyme is about 38000 daltons.
