Study of SOS-inducing kinetics and inhibitory effect on induction of Escherichia coli.

Abstract excerpt

It was found that modified pulse induction could produce SOS responses of the sfi gene in 15 minutes. The responses peaked at 30-60 minutes and were twice as strong as those by persistent induction. The modified pulse induction could therefore more truly reflect the inducing effect. However, the SOS-inducing kinetics of MMC and 4NQO was not identical suggesting distinct kinetic patterns of induction by different...
