Heat inactivation of Bacillus subtilis spores lacking small, acid-soluble spore proteins is accompanied by generation of abasic sites in spore DNA.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 1994

Setlow B, Setlow P

Abstract excerpt

Previous work has shown that lethal heat treatment of Bacillus subtilis spores lacking the major DNA-binding proteins SASP-alpha and -beta (alpha-beta- spores) causes significant DNA damage, including many single-strand breaks. In this work we have used a reagent specific for aldehydes present in abasic sites in DNA to show that DNA from wild-type spores killed by heat treatment to levels of < 0.05% survival had...
