RBM1 is sensitive to DNA damage-inducing stress. Freshly swabbed bacterial cultures on the MRS agar surface were exposed to UV short-wave radiation for 15 s. Half of the plate was covered using a glass plate to block UV irradiation. The irradiated plate was incubated at 37°C under microaerophilic conditions, and growth was monitored for up to 48 h. UV sensitivity was assessed by observing the growth defect on the UV- irradiated portion of the plate. Experiments repeated at least three times and a representative plate is shown.
