Dear colleagues,

As you probably know DNA bases oscillate between several tautomeric form and one is generally more stable than the others. This becomes important during DNA replication since it may induce errors. I would like to know if some mutagens are known to change the balance between tautomeric forms of bases, inducing errors during DNA replication. Does someone have experience with that? Thanks!
