PHENETHYL ALCOHOL. II. EFFECT ON THYMINE-REQUIRING ESCHERICHIA COLI.

abstract：:The effects of high doses of radiation (1, 5, or 20 Mrad) on the toxicity, pyrogenicity, and immunogenicity of Salmonella typhimurium cells and endotoxin were studied. Toxicity decreased progressively after exposure to 1, 5, or 20 Mrad. The lethal effect of 1-Mrad exposed cells was greater than that of heat-, acetone-...

abstract：:Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is universally used to recognize and remove many types of DNA damage. In eubacteria, the NER system typically consists of UvrA, UvrB, UvrC, the UvrD helicase, DNA polymerase I, and ligase. In addition, when DNA damage blocks transcription, transcription-repair coupling factor (TRCF), t...
