Structural and functional characterization of the Bacillus megaterium uvrBA locus and generation of UV-sensitive mutants.

Applied microbiology and biotechnology - 1 Aug 2004

Nahrstedt H, Meinhardt F

Abstract excerpt

The Bacillus megaterium genes uvrB and uvrA, encoding two subunits of the (A)BC excinuclease, which is responsible for nucleotide excision repair, were isolated and functionally characterized. RNA analyses revealed co-transcription of both genes probably forming a bicistronic operon. Expression of uvrB and uvrA was inducible by the DNA-damaging agent mitomycin C. This finding agrees with the presence of a...
