"Escherichia coli xth mutants are hypersensitive to hydrogen peroxide." |
Demple B, Halbrook J, Linn S |
Published Jan. 1, 1983 in J Bacteriol volume 153 .
Pubmed ID: 6337115
Abstract:
| Escherichia coli mutants lacking exonuclease III (xthA) are exceptionally sensitive to hydrogen peroxide. They are killed by H2O2 at 20 times the rate of wild-type bacteria and at 3 to 4 times the rate of recA cells. This is the first clear phenotypic sensitivity reported for xth- E. coli and should aid in clarifying peroxide-induced lethality and the in vivo role of exonuclease III. |
