Cell line | No radiation | radiation |
---|---|---|
Msh2+/+ | ND (<2.7 × 10−6) | ND (<3.6 × 10−7) |
Msh2+/− | ND (<1.7 × 10−6) | 1.5 × 10−6 (±0.7 × 10−6) |
Msh2−/− | 5 × 10−4 (±0.7 × 10−4) | 2 × 10−3 (±0.4 × 10−3) |
Prevalence of 6-TG-resistant clones in ES cell cultures before and after protracted low level radiation exposure was assessed as described in Materials and Methods. ND, no 6-TG-resistant colonies detected.
