Title : Drosophila mutations at the mei-9 and mus(2)201 loci which block excision of thymine dimers also block induction of unscheduled DNA synthesis by methyl methanesulfonate, ethyl methanesulfonate, N-methyl-N-nitrosourea, UV light and X-rays.

1 Drosophila mutations at the mei-9 and mus(2)201 loci which block excision of thymine dimers also block induction of unscheduled DNA synthesis by methyl methanesulfonate, ethyl methanesulfonate, N-methyl-N-nitrosourea, UV light and X-rays. Methyl Methanesulfonate meiotic 9 Drosophila melanogaster
2 The mei-9 and mus(2)201 mutants of Drosophila melanogaster were identified as mutagen-sensitive mutants on the basis of larval hypersensitivity to methyl methanesulfonate and characterized as excision repair-deficient on the basis of a greatly reduced capacity to excise thymine dimers from cellular DNA. Methyl Methanesulfonate meiotic 9 Drosophila melanogaster
