Fidelity of deoxyribonucleic acid polymerases from normal and leukaemic human cells in polydeoxynucleotide...

Although the relative incorporation of incorrect nucleotide (dCTP or dGTP) into poly(dA-dT).poly(dA-dT) by partially purified 3-4S DNA polymerase from normal or leukaemic human cells was four to five times higher than that by the 6-7S DNA polymerase, no significant differences in the infidelity of these polymerases between normal and leukaemic cells were noted.
