Appendix I

Details of individual mutations in the lacI gene of untreated and treated (3.5 Gy) Big Blue/wild-type and Big Blue/Ogg1-/- mice. Mutations are summarized in Table 1. Mutants are listed by position in the lacI gene, and single base substitutions are listed before other mutations. + in the CpG column indicate that the site of the mutation is part of a 5’-CpG-3’ sequence.

Big Blue wild-type, untreated.

Appendix II

Mutation frequencies have been compared assuming a binomial distribution of mutations between treated and untreated mice. The ratio of the mutation frequencies are given with 95% confidence intervals. The test is described in more detail in Materials and methods. The comparison is only done for treated vs. nontreated animals of the same genotype.

Mutation frequencies (Figure 4A)

Wild-type (treated vs. nontreated)

ratio=1.1 (95% C.I. 0.6 - 2.0, P=0.861)

Ogg1-/- (treated vs. nontreated)

ratio=2.3 (95% C.I. 1.4 - 4.0, P=0.001)

Frequencies of GC to AT transitions (Figure 4 B, upper panel)

Wild-type (treated vs. nontreated)

ratio=1.0 (95% C.I. 0.5 - 2.2, P=1.000)

Ogg1-/- (treated vs. nontreated)

ratio=1.4 (95% C.I. 0.6 - 3.2 P=0.551)

Frequencies of GC to TA transversions (Figure 4 B, lower panel)

Wild-type (treated vs. nontreated)

ratio=2.5 (95% C.I 0.4 - 26.5 P=0.445)

Ogg1-/- (treated vs. nontreated)

ratio=3.0 (95% C.I. 1.2 - 8.5, P=0.016)
