Bioluminescence-mediated stimulation of photoreactivation in bacteria.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Sept 2005

Kozakiewicz Jowita, Gajewska Magdalena, Lyzeń Robert, Czyz Agata, Wegrzyn Grzegorz

Abstract excerpt

Although biochemistry and genetics of light emission by cells have been investigated in detail, a biological role for bacterial luminescence has remained obscure for a long time. It was proposed recently that luminescence may stimulate DNA repair, but the specific mechanism of this phenomenon was not investigated. Moreover, experiments showing decreased survival of UV-irradiated lux mutants relative to...
