Abstract

Vsr endonuclease, which initiates very short patch repair, has been hypothesized to regulate mutation in stationary-phase cells. Overexpression of Vsr does dramatically increase the stationary-phase reversion of a Lac- frameshift allele, but the absence of Vsr has no effect. Thus, at least in this case, Vsr has no regulatory role in stationary-phase mutation, and the effects of Vsr overproduction are likely to be artifactual.
