Abstract excerpt
To resist terrestrial UV radiation, plants employ DNA-damage-repair/toleration (DRT) activities, as well as shielding mechanisms. Little is known about the structure and regulation of plant DRT genes. We isolated DRT cDNAs from Arabidopsis thaliana, by selecting for complementation of Escherichia...
