Abstract excerpt
Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO lacks UV-inducible Weigle reactivation and Weigle mutagenesis of UV-damaged bacteriophages. This lack of UV-inducible, error-prone DNA repair appears to be due to the absence of efficiently expressed umuDC-like genes in this species. When the P. aeruginosa recA gene is...
