Ultraviolet Light Inactivation and Photoreactivation of AS-1 Cyanophage in Anacystis nidulans

Yukio Asato 1
PMCID: PMC233318  PMID: 816782

Abstract

Black light effected photorecovery of AS-1 cyanophage and wild-type cells. However, only partial photoreactivation of AS-1 was observed in a partially photoreactivable mutant of Anacystis nidulans.
