title: Expression of the recA gene of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO is inducible by DNA-damaging agents.
abstract: Western (immunoblot) analysis using Escherichia coli anti-RecA antiserum revealed that expression of the RecA protein of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO is induced upon exposure of the bacterium to UV irradiation or norfloxacin, a quinolone related to nalidixic acid.
