Abstract:
:The intercalating dye ethidium bromide (EB), inhibits excision of pyrimidine dimers from UV-irradiated excision-proficient Escherichia coli B/r hcr+ cells. Inhibition is total at a 2.5 - 10(-4) M concentration 120 min after irradiation with a dose of 750 erg/mm2. The viability of irradiated cells diminishes in proportion to the EB concentration. Under wholly analogous conditions of cultivation and irradiation no inhibitory effect of KCN and caffeine (CFF) and only a slight effect of chloramphenicol (CAP) on dimer excision has been observed. The viability of cells is affected by these compounds but it does not appear to depend on the quantity of excised photoproducts. A change in the secondary structure of DNA induced by intercalation of EB appears to be the reason for the depression of excision of UV photoproducts.
