Abstract excerpt
The repair of double-strand gaps (DSGs) in the plasmid DNA of radiosensitive mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been analyzed. The proportion of repair events that resulted in complete plasmid DNA DSG recovery was close to 100% in Rad+ cells. Mutation rad55 does not influence the efficiency and preciseness of DSG repair. The mutant rad57, which is capable of recombinational DNA DSB repair, resulted in no DSG...
