Abstract
Kinetic analysis of induction of recA protein synthesis after U.V. irradiation does not show correspondence with the kinetics of division inhibition in lon + and lon - strains, but there is correlation between induction and DNA repair activity. Protein X is stable and identical in both lon + and lon - strains. When the induction of recA protein after U.V. is drastically reduced by rifampicin treatment, no effect on the kinetics of division inhibition is observed.This publication has 32 references indexed in Scilit:
