mutageno


Explanation:
Ho controllato in testi di riferimento di medicina e siti web relativi e non ho riscontrato il termine promutageno. Mutageno e' un agente che induce mutazioni genetiche. Verifica in un comune dizionario italiano: non troverai promutageno, ma mutageno. Comunque, l'argomento mi interessa, quindi fammi sapere!

promutageno


Explanation:
I agree with with bianca's suggestion. Biologically, a promutagen is a substance that does not necessarily alter DNA sequence, but nonetheless favors the establishment of a mutated genotype.
