Pol μ dGTP mismatch insertion opposite T coupled with ligation reveals promutagenic DNA repair intermediate

Incorporation of mismatched nucleotides during DNA replication or repair can lead to mutagenesis. Here the authors reveal that DNA ligase can ligate NHEJ intermediates following incorporation of 8-oxodGTP or dGTP opposite T by DNA Polymerase mu (Pol mu) in vitro, which suggests that Pol mu could cau...
