| Abstract: | Experiments were performed to analyze the possible interaction between lesions induced by X-rays and restriction endonucleases in the production of chromosome-type exchanges. A stronger interaction was found between X-rays and the AluI-induced 'blunt termini' lesions than between X-rays and the BamHI-induced 'cohesive termini' lesions. |
