X-ray-enhanced reactivation of ultraviolet-irradiated human virus.

چکیده
When CV-1 mammalian cells were X-irradiated before infection with ultraviolet (UV)-irradiated herpes simplex virus, an increase in survival of this virus was observed. X-ray reactivation is proposed as the name of this phenomenon by analogy with UV reactivation. The amount of survival enhancement was about the same as that found for UV reactivation in the same virus-host system. The enhancement reached a plateau at approximately 1000 rads and appeared to be radiation-insensitive at high doses.

Defective reactivation of ultraviolet light-irradiated herpesvirus by a Bloom's syndrome fibroblast strain.
We have used the technique of host cell reactivation of UV-irradiated herpes simplex virus type 1 as a measure of the repair capacity of three Bloom's syndrome skin fibroblast strains. At low multiplicity of infection (less than 6 x 10(-4) plaque-forming unit/cell), reactivation of the virus by the Bloom's syndrome strains was indistinguishable from that by normal strains. Reactivation at highe...
متن کاملDark reactivation of ultraviolet-irradiated tobacco necrosis virus.
Some damage caused in tobacco necrosis virus by u.v. radiation could be repaired in darkness in Chenopodium amaranticolor (dark reactivation) but not in French bean or in tobacco. By contrast, photoreactivation of the irradiated virus was observed in French bean and in tobacco but not in Chenopodium. The kind of damage in u.v.-irradiated virus that is susceptible to repair by photoreactivation ...
متن کاملEnhanced transformation of xeroderma pigmentosum variant cells by ultraviolet light-irradiated simian virus 40.
The role of DNA repair in transformation was investigated by infecting repair-deficient xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) variant cells, XP variant heterozygous cells, and normal human fibroblasts with simian virus 40 which had been irradiated by ultraviolet light. The transformation frequencies obtained were compared to those observed for unirradiated virus. While normal and heterozygous cells showed...

Bacteriol. 90:1138-1142. 1965.-The survival curve (plaque titer versus time) of vaccinia virus irradiated with ultraviolet light was found to be strongly dependent, in both shape and general slope, on the degree of aggreg...
متن کاملIndirect Ultraviolet - Reactivation of Phage x ( mutagenesis / repair of DNA / bacterial conjugation / Escherichia coli )
When an Frecipient Escherichia coli K12 bacterium receives Hfr or F-lac+ DNA from an ultraviolet-irradiated donor, its capacity to promote DNA repair and mutagenesis of ultraviolet-damaged phage X is substantially increased. We call this phenomenon indirect ultraviolet-reactivation, since its features are essentially the same as those of ultraviolet-reactivation; this repair process occurs in p...
