“…These studies have involved the characterization of two general mechanisms for DNA dark repair, namely excision repair and post-replication or recombinational repair; each of these is accomplished by a number of enzymatic steps (for reviews, see 4,19,22). Radiobiological techniques in Staphylococcus aureus research have centered on the use of ultraviolet (UV) radiation in metabolic studies (2) and the characterization of bacteriophage (6,(12)(13)(14). However, up to this time no information has been available on the capability of S. aureus to perform DNA dark repair.…”

Nitrosoguanidine (NG) mutagenesis of Staphylococcus aureus resulted in the isolation of eight mutants exhibiting 3 to 28 times greater sensitivity to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. These mutants were further characterized by their ability to repair UV-irradiated bacteriophage, to act as recipients in the transduction of antibiotic resistance, and their sensitivity to NG. Based on the available data, six of these mutants are reduced in their ability to perform host-cell reactivation. One of the remaining two mutants may be deficient in post-replication repair.
