Abstract excerpt
It has been shown that the decline in mutant frequency (MFD) (argE3(ochre)-->Arg+) which occurs in MMS-treated and then transiently starved AB1157 Escherichia coli K-12 cells concerns revertants which arose by supL suppressor formation in a process which is umuDC dependent. Here we have examined...
