Abstract

The in vivo pleiotropic effects associated with the temperature-sensitive recB270 and recC271 mutations have been correlated with the in vitro behavior of the recBC nucleases coded for by these alleles. The ATP-dependent breakdown of double-stranded DNA is essential for cell viability, radiation repair, and genetic recombination. Temperature sensitivity can be suppressed in vitro and in vivo.
