Use of Two-Dimensional Agarose-Gel Analysis to Characterize Processing of UV-Irradiated Plasmids and the Composition of the Replisome Following UV-induced Arrest
Abstract:In this thesis, I address two fundamental questions related to our understanding of how DNA damage is processed and repaired during replication. Using Two-dimensional (2-D) agarose gel analysis, I first examine whether DNA damage on plasmids introduced by transformation is processed in a manner similar to that observed on endogenously replicating plasmids and the chromosome. The original intent for using this approach was to develop a technique that could examine how different DNA adducts would be repaired in … Show more
