When UV-irradiated phiX174 was grown in pre-irradiated host cells of various strains, "ultraviolet reactivation" (UVR) was observed only in recombination proficient strains such as E. coli C (uvrA+ recA+) and HF4704 (uvrA- recA+), but not in the recombination deficient strain HF4712 (uvrA+ recA-).

The thymine requirement of the E. coli strain HF 4704 (uvr A-, rec A+) is thermosensitive i.e. these cells require for their growth 2 microng thymine per ml at 37 degrees C but not at 30 degrees C. Such cells when starved for thymine for 3 h at 37 degrees C are capable of sustaining growth of single
Using various replication mutants of E. coli, the host genes that participate in the replication of some K12-specific single-stranded DNA phages have been determined. Functional products of dnaE, -F, -G and -Z genes are required for the multiplication of phiK, whereas dnaA, -B, -C(D), H, -I and -P a
The umuC product of Escherichia coli has been suggested to have a central role in SOS induced error prone replication of DNA (Kato and Shinoura 1977). To investigate this possibility, we examined the effect of umuC mutations on error prone repair of single and double-stranded DNA phages. No Weigle r
The left part of the SPP1 chromosome can be defined by the presence of dispensable DNA. With this definition, the polarities of the separable H and L strands of SPP1 DNA ar 5'--3' and 3'--5', respectively, from left to right.
