REPAIR OF UV-INDUCED PYRIMIDINE DIMERS IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER CELLS IN VITRO
Keyword(s):
ABSTRACT Tissue culture cells of Drosophila melanogaster were given various doses of ultraviolet light. The results indicate that Drosophila cells do have a darkrepair excision mechanism which is not sensitive to caffeine. Pyrimidine dimers were destroyed by photoreactivating illumination in these cells and this destruction probably represents monomerization of the pyrimidine dimers.
