The progress of repair in Schizosaccharomyces pombe may be followed during post-irradiation incubation by measuring, after various intervals, the ability of UV- or gamma-irradiated cells to avoid enhanced lethality when exposed to the repair inhibitor caffeine (Gentner and Werner, 1975). This techni
UV-or 7-irradiated G2 phase cells of rad + Schizosaccharomycespombe show increased inactivation if incubated postirradiation, in liquid growth medium containing caffeine, before being plated on normal agar medium. The following, however, do not show such caffeine-induced lethality: G1 phase rad + ce
