Distinct DNA repair pathways cause genomic instability at alternative DNA structures

Alternative DNA structure-forming sequences can stimulate mutagenesis and are enriched at mutation hotspots in human cancer genomes, implicating them in disease etiology. However, the mechanisms involved are not well characterized. Here, we discover that Z-DNA is mutagenic in yeast as well as human...
