| Abstract | Most single base deletions detected after DNA polymerization in vitro directed by either Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I or its Klenow fragment are opposite Pu in the template. The most frequent study, were previously found to be associated with the consensus template context 5'-PyTPu-3'. In this study, the predictive power of the consensus sequence on single base deletion frequencies was directly tested by parallel comparison of mutations arising in four related DNAs differing by a single base. G, a deletion hotspot within the template context 5'-TTGA-3', was substituted by each of the 3 other bases. Previous studies had shown that deletions opposite the G were frequent but that deletions opposite its neighboring A were never detected. Based on the predictions of the consensus, the substitution of T for G should produce frequent deletions opposite the neighboring A due to its new 5'-TTTA-3' template context. This prediction was fulfilled; no deletions of this A were detected in the other templates. The consensus further predicted that deletions opposite template C would be lower than those opposite either A or G at the same site and this prediction was also fulfilled. The C substitution also produced a new hotspot for 1 bp deletions 14 bp away. The new hotspot depends on quasi-palindromic misalignment of the newly synthesized DNA strand during polymerization; accurate, but ectopically templated synthesis is responsible for this mutagenesis. Mutations templated by quasi-palindromic misalignments have previously been recognized when they produced complex sequence changes; here we show that this mechanism can produce frequent single base deletions. The unique stimulation of misalignment mutagenesis by the C substitution in the template is consistent with the singular ability of C at that site to contribute to extended complementary pairing during the DNA misalignment that precedes mutagenesis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
