Abstract
Nuclcotide insertion during DNA repair synthesis has been studied in cultured human diploid fibroblasts (WI-38) and Balb/c 3T3 mouse cells damaged with ultraviolet radiation and two mutagenic carcinogens, N-acetoxy-2-acetylaminofluorene (NA-AAF) and 7-bromomethylbenz[a]anthracene (7BrMeBA). Evidence from thermal elution chromatography, S1 nuclease digestion studies, and pyrimidine isostich analysis suggests that in mammalian cells the complementary, undamaged strand serves as a template for repair synthesis and that the result of such synthesis is the accurate restoration of the damaged area to the original nucleotide sequence.
