Exploring the gene with X-rays.

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Dec 1996

Manchester K L

Abstract excerpt

X-rays were discovered 100 years ago. Their effects on living cells and on mutation were quickly recognized. This article discusses a classic paper that sought to use X-rays to estimate the size of the gene and question mechanics to explain its impressive stability.
