The ability to remove UV-induced pyrimidine dimers was examined in 4 radiation-sensitive mutants of S. cerevisiae. The susceptibility of DNA from irradiated cells to nicking by either the [bacteriophage] T4 UV-endonuclease or an endonuclease activity found in crude extracts of Micrococcus luteus was used to measure the presence of dimers in DNA. The rad3 and rad4 mutants are defective in dimer excision; whereas the rad6 and rad9 mutants are proficient in dimer excision.
