General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction the level of CTG instability in transgenic DM1 mice with more than 300 CTG repeats which are crossed to mice carrying the homozygous 46BR LigI mutation (only 3% normal activity) and in vitro replication of CTG DNA templates by protein extracts from the 46BR.1G1 LIGI-deficient cell line is assessed. The 46BR LigI enhances CTG contractions in maternal transmissions but not paternal transmissions or somatic tissues. The presence of CTG contractions in oocytes and a replication template-specific effect of the 46BR LigI support a role for LigI in maternal allele-specific CTG instability Homo sapiens
