Analysis of the genetic requirements for viability of Escherichia coli K-12 DNA adenine methylase (dam) mutants.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 1993

Peterson K R, Mount D W

Abstract excerpt

RecBCD protein, necessary for Escherichia coli dam mutant viability, is directly required for DNA repair. Recombination genes recF+, recN+, recO+, and recQ+ are not essential for dam mutant viability; they are required for recBC sbcBC dam mutant survival. mutH, mutL, or mutS mutations do not suppress subinduction of SOS genes in dam mutants.
