The mutational response of mismatch repair-deficient animals to the alkylating agent N-methyl-N-nitrosourea was evaluated by using a transgenic lacI reporter system. Although the mutations detected in MSH2 heterozygotes were similar to those of controls, MSH2-/-animals demonstrated striking increases in mutation frequency in response to this agent....
