Genetics - 1 Sept 1994

Abstract excerpt
Using a screen that directly assesses transductional proficiency, we have isolated suppressors of recB mutations in Salmonella typhimurium. The alleles of sbcB reported here are phenotypically distinct from those isolated in Escherichia coli in that they restore recombination proficiency (Rec+), resistance to ultraviolet light (UVR), and mitomycin C resistance (MCR) in the absence of an accompanying sbcCD...
