Mutation rate and spectrum in obligately outcrossing Caenorhabditis elegans mutation accumulation lines subjected to RNAi-induced knockdown of the mismatch repair gene msh-2

DNA mismatch repair (MMR), an evolutionarily conserved repair pathway shared by prokaryotic and eukaryotic species alike, influences molecular evolution by detecting and correcting mismatches, thereby protecting genetic fidelity, reducing the mutational load, and preventing lethality. Herein we cond...
