Damage to the DNA of bacteriophage λ results in a loss of phage viability upon infection ofEscherichia coli . However, phage viability is restored if the bacterial DNA is damaged prior to infection by exposure to UV radiation. This process, referred to as Weigle or W-reactivation, is accompanied by an increase in the number of base substitution mutations inλ.1 The rescue and mutagenesis of the damaged lambda phage is a byproduct of the action of DNA damageinducible genes inE. coli, expressed as part of the SOS regulon. 2-4 More generally, the large increase ( ∼100-fold) observed in both chromosomal and episomal mutagenesis associated with SOS induction is referred to as “SOS errorprone repair”. 5
