Plasmids containing uracil substituting for a fraction of thymine residues are hyperrecombinogenic in some bacterial systems. To test whether a similar stimulation of recombination occurs in </span>mammalian cells, we have prepared a uracil-rich </span></span><em>HPRT</em><span> targeting construct and quantified its homologous and nonhomologous recombination frequencies compared to the same plasmid lacking uracil. The uracil-rich plasmid led to reductions in both homologous and nonhomologous recombination in human cells.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":100935,"journal":{"name":"Mutation Research/DNA Repair","volume":"461 2","pages":"Pages 157-162"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0921-8777(00)00039-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21850339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
