Ruv and recG genes and the induced precise excision of Tn10 in Escherichia coli
Induction of precise excision of Tn10 by UV or mitomycin C (MMC) is dependent on the expression of the SOS system. Ruv mutants of Escherichia coli, which are defective in DNA repair and recombination, showed diminished frequencies of both spontaneous and UV- or MMC-induced excision of Tn10 inserted...

Induction of precise excision of Tn10 by UV or mitomycin C (MMC) is dependent on the expression of the SOS system.

RecG mutants, which are also defective in DNA repair and recombination, showed decreased induction of Tn10 excision with MMC, but not after UV treatment. A recG ruv double mutant showed a greater decrease in induction of excision with MMC than either single mutant.
