Abstract excerpt

The time course of the intracellular ATP concentration in several UV-irradiated RecA protease constitutive (Cptc) mutants of E. coli has been studied. All Cptc mutants harboring a mutation in region 3 of the RecA protein (including amino acid residues 298-301) increased ATP after UV damage but wi...
