Abstract:
:The role of recombination genes in the processing of DNA damaged by methlymethane sulfonate (MMS) was examined in an xth nth nfo strain of Escherichia coli K-12. Introduction of a recQ mutation did not increase the cell's sensitivity to MMS treatment. The presence of recF, recJ or recN mutation slightly increased the cell's sensitivity to MMS treatment. The introduction of recA or recB mutation into the cells led to inviability. Taken together, we suggest that replication of DNA containing apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites in vivo will lead to the formation of secondary lesions. The repair of these secondary lesions requires the function of recA and recB genes, but does not appear to require recF, recJ, recQ or recN genes.
