Chimeric plasmids containing the uvsY uvsW region of the T4 genome were examined for the expression of these genes. Certain of these plasmids were shown to express the uvsY or the uvsW gene products by their ability to complement the UV sensitivity of infecting uvsW or uvsY mutant phage. Also, a chimeric plasmid containing both the uvsW and uvsY genes increases the survival of UV-irradiated, methyl methane sulfonate- or ethyl methane sulfonate-treated recA hosts.
对含有T4基因组uvsY uvsW区域的嵌合质粒进行了这些基因表达的检测。通过这些质粒补充感染uvsW或uvsY突变噬菌体的紫外线敏感性的能力,证明其中某些质粒可表达uvsY或uvsW基因产物。此外,含有uvsW和uvsY基因的嵌合质粒可提高经紫外线照射、甲基磺酸甲酯或乙基磺酸甲酯处理的recA宿主的存活率。
