Purification of tropomyosin from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and identification of related proteins in Schizosaccharomyces and Physarum.

abstract：:We have analyzed the spectra of UV-induced mutations in the lacI gene of a wild-type and an mfd strain of Escherichia coli. mfd strains have been recently proposed to be deficient in a factor coupling DNA repair and transcription. Analysis of UV-induced mutations occurring at adjacent pyrimidines showed that mutations...
