A strain with both the polA12 and the alk-1 mutation is only slightly more sensitive to methyl methane sulfonate (MMS) than isogenic strains with only one of the mutations. On the other hand, alk-1 recA1 double mutant is much more sensitive to MMS than are strains carrying either one of alk or recA
## Abstract DNA damage was evaluated by flow cytometric (FCM) analysis of cells treated with Lβphenylalanine mustard (LβPAM) and stained with antiβDNA monoclonal antibody (MAb) F7β26. DNA damage was rapidly repaired, as indicated by the loss of DNA immunoreactivity after removal of LβPAM. Two types
