Abstract excerpt
It has been shown that the increased frequency of precise excision of Tn10 observed after UV or mitomycin C (MMC) treatment or with uvrD- mutants is recA-dependent. Previous work has also shown that expression of SOS genes is required for UV- or MMC-induced Tn10 precise excision. In order to determine if the increased excision of Tn10 in uvrD- mutants requires only expression of recA, or expression of other SOS...
