## Abstract The SOS system in __Escherichia coli__ is induced in response to DNA damage and the arrest of DNA synthesis. Here we show that in AB1157 bacteria starved for arginine, conditions for induction of adaptive mutations, the LexAβdependent SOS system is induced, but that this occurs only whe
When Escherichia coli is subjected to treatments that damage DNA or perturb DNA replication considerable cell filamentation occurs. It has been postulated that this phenomenon is associated with the presence of a division inhibitor induced coordinately with the SOS functions. The role of this induct
The study of ultraviolet (UV) mutagenesis in fscherichio coli began with the assumption that genes were likely to be changed at the instant of photon absorption. Over many decades, it became clear that postirradiation cellular activities, including enzymatic DNA repair of UV photo products and error
