SummaryDiploid wild type yeast strains 211, X2180 and the radiation sensitive mutantsrad2, 6, 9, 18, 50–55, and57 were exposed to cobalt-60 gamma radiation, in the presence and absence of oxygen, in order to identify the RAD loci involved in the repair of sublethal damage (SLD), recovery from potentially lethal damage (PLD) and oxygen enhancement ratio (OER). Response of wild type and mutants were compared in terms of survival curve parameters Dq, D10, D1, and D0. As compared to wild type the mutants showed increased sensitivity to radiation lethality, both under euoxic and hypoxic conditions, as judged by the reduction in Dq and D0 values. OER was reduced in therad2, 9, 18, 50, 51, and57 mutants indicating that these genes could be associated with the repair of gamma radiation damage produced under hypoxic condition.Shoulder (Dq) a measure of the ability of the cells to repair SLD, was reduced in therad6, 9, 18, 50, 53, and57 strains and was almost absent in therad51, 52, 54, and55 mutants. The ability to recover from PLD was equal to that of wild type strain in therad2, 6, 9, and18 strains, reduced in therad53, 55, and57 strains and was absent in therad50–52 and54 strains. In the mutants with liquid holding recovery ability, the extent of recovery from PLD produced under euoxic and hypoxic conditions was the same. These observations suggest that different groups of loci are involved in the control of different repair processes and that the expression of therad50–57 loci play a very important role in the repair of ionising radiation damage.On the basis of the liquid holding recovery data presented here and the observations made by others it is suggested that the unrepaired DSB constitute the PLD and that the repair of DSB involves recombination between homologous chromosomes.
