Rate volatility and asymmetric segregation diversify mutation burden in cells with mutator alleles

Dowsett et al use a single-cell resolution approach to analyse the distribution of mutations across several divisions in yeast diploid strains mutated in mismatch repair and polymerase delta proofreading. They find that the underlying mutation rate varies from one division to another, and that new m...
