Mutation induction in the mouse and human germline

详细

The review describes the effects of exposure to mutagens on mutation induction in human and mouse germlines. The results of studies that evaluated inductions of mutations in human families subjected to irradiation are presented and discussed. The effects of exposure to mutagens on mutation induction in the mouse germline are also considered. We analyze and discuss the recent data on the genome-wide effects of irradiation on mutation induction in the mouse germline obtained by next-generation sequencing and comparative genome hybridization.
