Mutation of the ruv gene of E. coli is associated with sensitivity to radiation, and filamentous growth after transient inhibition of DNA synthesis. The filamentation of ruv strains is abolished by mutations in sfiA or sfiB that prevent SOS induced inhibition of cell division, but this does not rest

Mutants carrying recF143 or recF144 show wild type levels of host cell reactivation of UV-irradiated lambdavir and wild type rates of excision gap closure in repairing UV damage to their own DNA. The same mutants showed reduced rates of postreplication repair strand joining. When uvrA- recF- or uvrB
The effect of the ligts-7 mutation on cell survival and the extent of DNA repair after UV (254 nm) irradiation was determined for wild-type and uvrB5 cells of E. coli K-12 at 30 degrees and 42 degrees C. At the restrictive temperature (42 degrees C) the ligts-7 mutation resulted in (i) a decrease in
