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
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. UV-induced reversion frequencies of the ochre allele arg4-17, the putative missense allele ilvl-92 and the frameshift allele
The interaction of UV-irradiation and ethylene oxide (EtO) on forward mutation frequencies in the lacI gene of E. coli strains 3835 and 3951 and on the frequency of leu+ revertants in E. coli WU36-10-89 were studied. Pre-exposure to low doses of UV-light with the following treatment by low and inter
