Genomic Scars Generated by Polymerase Theta Reveal the Versatile Mechanism of Alternative End-Joining.
For more than half a century, genotoxic agents have been used to induce mutations in the genome of model organisms to establish genotype-phenotype relationships. While inaccurate replication across damaged bases can explain the formation of single nucleotide variants, it remained unknown how DNA dam...
