Estimates of the capacity of photoreactivation to act specifically on premutational lesions were obtained by conjugational transfer of an F' lac plasmid from a UV-irradiated, photoreactivated donor to a delta (pro-lac) recipient that had been UV irradiated and allowed to induce SOS functions for 30 min. This treatment reduced the frequency of induced lacI mutations by 70 to 80%, indicating that cyclobutane dimers cause most mutations in this system.
通过将F' lac质粒从紫外线照射且经光复活处理的供体进行接合转移至经紫外线照射并允许诱导SOS功能30分钟的δ(pro-lac)受体,获得了光复活作用特异性作用于前突变损伤的能力估计值。这种处理使诱导的lacI突变频率降低了70%至80%,表明环丁烷二聚体在该系统中导致了大多数突变。
