Recently, the use of restriction enzymes has been extended to studies in which rare events such as mutation and mistakes in DNA repair are examined. In these studies, the specificity of restriction enzymes becomes critical. To clarify the nature of the rare unexpected events occurring in the process

✦ Synopsis
Plasmid ColIb (61.5 Mdal) was digested with restriction enzymes EcoRI and HindIII. The DNA digestion products were separated by electrophoresis on 1.2% agarose gels. There were identified 22 fragments of ColIb DNA generated by the endonuclease EcoRI and 21 fragments produced by HindIII. Molecular weights of the fragments were estimated. The total molecular weight of the fragments generated by EcoRI was 61.42 Mdal and for HindIII fragments 62.79 Mdal.

The plasmid ColIb-P9 introduced into Escherichia coli K12 umuC mutant cells suppresses the deficiencies in mutagenesis and repair of mutants after UV-irradiation. These data suggest that ColIb-P9 encodes a product with a function similar to that of the chromosomal gene umuC. Tn5 insertion mutants of
Numerous biological factors have an effect upon the probability of the presence of a theoretical restriction site at a given point, (1/4)n, in a DNA molecule, where n represents the number of base pairs composing the site. Indeed, it is a fact that the ratio (formula; see text) does not usually equa
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) isolates were investigated by restriction enzyme analysis. A method for extraction of cellular CMV DNA is described which uses CMV DNA released into the Hirt supernatant after precipitation of cellular DNA. CMV DNA is further purified by ultracentrifugation in neutral sucrose g
