A method was developed for the isolation of spontaneous mutants of Escherichia coli K-12 with deletions extending from the srl operon to the adjacent recA gene. The srl-recA deletion mutants were extremely sensitive to dNA-damaging agents; unable to support growth of the feckless red gam mutant lamb
The effect of the cellular level of RecA protein on the ability of E. coli K12 bacteria to (i) survive UV-irradiation (ii) promote UV-reactivation of UV-damaged phage lambda (iii) induce prophage lambda was determined in bacterial mutants with discrete increasing levels of RecA protein. The various
