Incorporation of (Methyl 3H) 5′-dTMP into DNA of Diploid Yeast Cells as Tracer of Liquid Holding Recovery after X-Ray Irradiation

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Proceedings in Life Sciences ((LIFE SCIENCES))

Abstract

It is known that the cells of the yeast Sacchavomyces cevevisiae exhibit a postirradiation increase in colony-forming ability after delayed plating. This phenomenon has been termed liquid holding recovery (LHR) (Patrick and Haynes, 1964). LHR is dependent upon the availability of metabolic energy (Jain and Pohlit, 1972). Respiratory deficient yeast strains must be supplemented with glucose in the LHR buffer to perform LHR.

This work is part of the Ph.D. thesis of the first author.
