DNA mismatch repair promotes APOBEC3-mediated diffuse hypermutation in human cancers

Certain mutagens, including the APOBEC3 (A3) cytosine deaminase enzymes, can create multiple genetic changes in a single event. Activity of A3s results in striking ‘mutation showers’ occurring near DNA breakpoints, however less is known about mechanisms underlying the majority of A3 mutations. We cl...
