Induction of mutations in B. subtilis phage SPP1 by growth on host cells carrying a mutator DNA polymerase III

M A Montenegro et al. Mol Gen Genet. .

Abstract

Phage SPP1 infecting a mutator strain of B. subtilis (BD337) which carries a defective DNA polymerase III is mutagenized. This effect is absent in phages SPO2, SP82G and øe. The results confirm previous observations that SPP1 uses host DNA polymerase III for its DNA synthesis.
