Abstract excerpt
The repair of singlet oxygen (1O2)-induced DNA lesions requires several enzymes of the nucleotide and base excision repair pathways, including exonuclease III and endonuclease IV that are known apurinic/apyrimidinic-endonucleases in Escherichia coli. In order to better understand the relevance of exonuclease III on the repair of these lesions, we investigated the mutagenic events that result from the replication...
