Abstract
We investigated the mutator effect resulting from overproduction of Escherichia coli DNA polymerase IV. Using lac mutational targets in the two possible orientations on the chromosome, we observed preferential mutagenesis during lagging strand synthesis. The mutator activity likely results from extension of mismatches produced by polymerase III holoenzyme.Entities:
