Induction of mutations in bacteriophage T7 by gamma-rays. No influence of the SOS repair pathway
article
Under conditions where the reversion of an amber mutant of bacteriophage ?? by ??-rays is enhanced by subjecting the irradiated phage to SOS repair, ??-ray-induced reversion of two T7 ambers is not influenced by this error-prone bacterial repair system. The survival of T7 ??-irradiated under anoxic conditions is somewhat enhanced by SOS repair, whereas the survival of phage irradiated under oxygen is not affected.
