Abstract excerpt
We investigated the dynamics of the SOS response induction and the frequency of reversions induced by the monofunctional alkylating compound N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine in Escherichia coli cells exposed to osmotic stress for 1 h. During the stress treatment of the wild-type cultures adapted and not adapted to the alkylating agent, the maximum SOS response values and induced reversion frequencies were...
