Heteroduplex repair as an intermediate step of UV mutagenesis in yeast

Eckardt, Friederike, Teh, Soo-Jeet, Haynes, R H·1980·Genetics

Abstract

We have measured UV-induced mutation frequencies in yeast in a forward, nonselective assay system by scoring white adex ade2 double auxotrophs among parental red-pigmented ade2 clones. The frequencies of sectored and pure mutant clones were determined separately. In excision-defective strains carrying the genes radl-1, rad3-2 and rad4-4, as well as in the double mutants, rad 1-1 rad 3-2 and rad 1-1 rad 4-4, considerably more sectored than pure clones are induced in the low-dose range; in repair-competent strains, pure mutant clones substantially outnumber the sectored clones. These results can be explained on the basis of known differences in the timing of error-prone repair during the cell division cycle; that is, we assume that error-prone repair occurs primarily before replication in RAD wild-type strains but after replication in excision-deficient mutants. It has been suggested that excision deficiency has a pleiotropic effect on heteroduplex repair and nucleotide excision repair; however, the high percentage (36.6%) of half-sectored clones found in the rad1-1 strain is hard to reconcile with this hypothesis. We propose that heteroduplex repair occurs subsequent to error-prone repair in both excisionproficient and excision-deficient strains.

  • Closely opposing lesions may contribute to explaining that in wild-type yeast and bacteria most UV-induced mutagenesis depends on functional NER and occurs in G1, while without NER mutagenesis is S-phase specific.

    “These particular lesions may also contribute to explain the observation that both in wild-type yeast and bacteria cells most of the UV-induced mutagenesis depends upon a functional NER and takes place in G1 cells, while in the absence of NER the mutagenesis is S-phase specific [80,81].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
