Abstract

UV induced mutagenesis of bacteriophage T 7 was investigated by using a forward mutation system (host range system) and a back mutation system (amber system). The results indicate a dependence of mutation of T 7 after UV irradiation only on the rec gene controlled functions of the bacterial host. The functions controlled by pol and uvr genes have no influence. Among other types of mutations UV irradiation leads to transitions from AT to GC.

## Abstract The mutagenesis in phage T 7 after MMS‐, HNO~2~‐, hydroxylamine‐, 5‐BUdR‐, and 2‐AP‐treatment in relation to host controlled functions is investigated. There was no dependence of the induction of mutations on the character of the host strains (__rec, hcr__). A back mutation system (__am

It has been proposed that the mutation fixation processes stimulated by SOS induction result from an induced infidelity of DNA replication (Radman 1974). The aim of this study was to determine if mutator mutations in the E. coli DNA polymerase III might affect UV-induced mutagenesis. Using a phage l

We have examined induced mutagenesis in rev7-1 mutants of Baker's yeast' Saccharomyces cerevisiae, using a variety of contrasting test systems and several different mutagens.

Three allelic mutations of a new yeast gene, which we have named REV7, have been isolated by testing 313 methyl methane sulfonate sensitive mutants for UV-induced reversion of a lys2 allele. Rev7 mutants are markedly deficient with respect to UV-induced reversion of lys2, are slightly sensitive to U

Using a nonselective method, we have estimated the proportion of untargeted mutations in the lad gene of E. coli by transferring either irradiated or unirradiated F' pro lac plasmids from an excision deficient donor to an excision deficient pro lac deleted recipient that had been irradiated and allo
