Enhancement of postreplication repair in ultraviolet-light-irradiated Chinese hamster cells by irradiation in G2 or S-phase.

S M D'Ambrosio, P M Aebersold and R B Setlow

ABSTRACT

Postreplication repair in synchronous Chinese hamster cells was determined after split doses of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Repair was enhanced by irradiation of cells in G2 or S-phase with a small dose of UV radiation at least 1.5 h before a three-fold larger dose of UV. There was significantly greater enhancement when the first dose was given in G2 than when it was given in the S-phase 0.5-1.5 h before the test dose. These data indicate that enhancement of postreplication repair does not require active DNA replication and qualitatively is independent of when in the cell cycle the cells are irradiated.
