Photoreactivation and Gene Dosage in Yeast

Michael A Resnick a,1, Jane K Setlow a
PMCID: PMC247358  PMID: 4551754

Abstract

The amount of photoreactivating enzyme in tetraploid cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the ability of the cells to be photoreactivated after ultraviolet irradiation are directly proportional to the number of genes per cell involved in the synthesis of photoreactivating enzyme.
