Influence of a uvrD mutation on survival and repair of X-irradiated Escherichia coli K-12 cells.

The presence of a uvrD mutation increased the X-ray sensitivities of E. coli wild-type and polA strains, but had no effect on the sensitivities of recA and recB strains, and little effect on a lexA strain. Incubation of irradiated cells in medium containing 2,4-dinitrophenol or chloramphenicol decreased the survival of wild-type and uvrD cells, but had no effect on the survival of recA, recB and lexA strains. Alkaline sucrose gradient sedimentation studies indicated that the uvrD strain is deficient in the growth-medium-dependent (Type III) repair of DNA single-strand breaks. These results indicate that the uvrD mutation inhibits certain rec+lex+-dependent repair processes, including the growth-medium-dependent (Type III) repair of X-ray-induced DNA single-strand breaks, but does not inhibit other rec+lex+-dependent processes that are sensitive to 2,4-dinitrophenol and chloramphenicol.[1]
