Distinctive roles of translesion polymerases DinB1 and DnaE2 in diversification of the mycobacterial genome through substitution and frameshift mutagenesis
This manuscript elucidates new mechanisms of mutagenesis in mycobacteria by implicating two translesion DNA polymerases in genome diversification, including creating the mutations that underlie all antibiotic resistance in these global pathogens.
