1 To understand APN1-dependent mtDNA repair processes we studied the formation and repair of mtDNA lesions in cells exposed to methyl methanesulfonate (MMS). Methyl Methanesulfonate DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase APN1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
2 To understand APN1-dependent mtDNA repair processes we studied the formation and repair of mtDNA lesions in cells exposed to methyl methanesulfonate (MMS). Methyl Methanesulfonate DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase APN1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
3 We show that MMS induces mtDNA damage in a dose-dependent fashion and that deletion of the APN1 gene enhances the susceptibility of mtDNA to MMS. Methyl Methanesulfonate DNA-(apurinic or apyrimidinic site) lyase APN1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C
