Two mutants of the Chinese hamster cell line V79-4 (irs1 and irs2) were previously isolated on the basis of their hypersensitivity (2- to 3-fold) to cell inactivation by ionizing radiation. One of these mutants, irs1, displays an unusual phenotype of cross-sensitivity to other varied genotoxic agents including UV light (2- to 3-fold), ethyl methanesulphonate (approximately 10-fold) and mitomycin C (approximately...
