    Starvation in yeast increases non-adaptive mutation (1999)
    Springer

    Notes: Abstract The frequency of reversion in a histidine-requiring mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae increases about ten-fold in stationary cells during histidine starvation. Histidine starvation enhances a similar frequency of reversion in a tryptophan-requiring mutant. Starvation, therefore, enhances mutation frequencies in a non-adaptive manner. The base analogue 6-N-hydroxylaminopurine (HAP) added prior to plating on medium with limited histidine strongly increases reversion of the histidine mutant. HAP-induced reversion increases further in stationary starving cells with the same kinetics as that which increases spontaneous reversion. Adding HAP to the stationary starving cells does not produce any effect.

    6-N-hydroxylaminopurine (HAP)-induced accumulation of variability in haploid and diploid strains of Aspergillus nidulans (1997)

    Notes: Abstract Haploid and diploid strains of Aspergillus nidulans have been repeatedly treated with the strong mutagen 6-N-hydroxylaminopurine (HAP) which causes only base substitutions. An enormous amount of variability may be rapidly accumulated in haploid or diploid strains of A. nidulans. In particular, in the diploids the analysis of the results shows that after 12 cycles of treatment the conidia differ from each other for about ten recessive lethals and therefore probably for several hundreds of mutations. The viability of the heterozygous multiply mutant diploids is not appreciably different from that of untreated controls. In the diploid strains the accumulated variability was very high. The treatment of a haploid strain during vegetative growth also caused a strong accumulation of mutations, even though deleterious, because they can be maintained in the heterokaryotic condition.

    The uvsC and uvsE genes of Aspergillus nidulans are not required for the mutagenic repair of UV damage (1998)
    Springer
    Molecular genetics and genomics 259 (1998), S. 130-132

    ISSN: 1617-4623
    Keywords: Key wordsAspergillus nidulans ; uvsC ; uvsE ; UV mutability

    Notes: Abstract The uvsC gene of Aspergillus nidulans is a homolog of the RAD51 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, with respect to its effects on UV mutagenesis, it differs from the yeast gene, since it seems to be required for UV mutagenesis; however, this conclusion is based only on data from resting conidia. To further clarify the functional role of the uvsC gene, we tested the UV mutability of strains bearing a uvsC mutation in resting as well as in germinating conidia, by the p-fluoro-phenyl-alanine resistance test. We also evaluated the mutability of the uvsE mutant which belongs to the same epistatic group. Our results show that the uvsC and uvsE genes do not have a significant role in the mutagenic UV-repair pathway.
