Abstract excerpt
The mutagenesis shuttle vector, pZ189, was treated with ultraviolet (u.v.) radiation in vitro and passed through a DNA repair-deficient lymphoblastoid cell line derived from a patient with xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A (XP-A) (XP12BE(EBV)) and a DNA repair-proficient lymphoblastoid cell line (GM606(EBV)). After u.v. treatment, plasmid survival was lower and mutation frequency higher with the XP-A...
