Abstract excerpt
Two genes of Aspergillus nidulans are known to function in UV mutagenesis, but have been assigned to different epistasis groups: uvsC, which is also required for meiosis and mitotic recombination, and uvsI, which may have no other function. To clarify their role in error-prone repair and to inves...
