Acta Biochim Biophys Hung

Central Research Laboratory, László Hospital, Budapest, Hungary.

Published: September 1988

The 60Co gamma-resistance inducing effect of R46 factor, and its elimination by 5-fluorouracil were studied. R46 increased the survival of the wild-type strain and its rec- mutants. After treatment with 5-fluorouracil (1 g/liter) the clones lost not only antibiotic resistance, but the 60Co gamma-radioresistance as well, encoded by R46 R-factor.
