Papovavirus probes for DNA repair in human cells: Final report, August 15, 1983-May 15, 1987
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6478989
Extracellularly gamma irradiated simian virus 40 (SV40) was used as a model system to study the induction and intracellular repair of DSB (double-strand DNA breaks) and SSB (single-strand DNA breaks) in higher cells. The optimal experimental conditions for this approach were determined and the comparability of radiation dose-response data were compared with those obtained by other techniques. Experiments in progress suggest that limited accessibility of heavily irradiated viral DNA to host cell enzymes leads to variable rates of repair of DSB or SSB. The effects of DNA configuration and molecular environment on the radiation induction of DSB, using SV40 as a model system are addressed. Results indicate that the intranuclear environment is highly protective against DSB induced by ionizing radiation. 9 refs., 11 figs., 3 tabs.
