Nucleoid-associated proteins affect mutation dynamics in E. coli in a growth phase-specific manner.
The binding of proteins can shield DNA from mutagenic processes but also interfere with efficient repair. How the presence of DNA-binding proteins shapes intra-genomic differences in mutability and, ultimately, sequence variation in natural populations, however, remains poorly understood. In this st...
