The mutation, discovered in a delta polA+ mutant, is responsible for inhibition of several phenomena related to the SOS response in polA+ strains: UV- and methyl methanesulfonate-induced mutagenesis, resumption of DNA replication in UV-irradiated cells, cell filamentation, prophage induction and increase in UV...
