Abstract
A group A xeroderma pigmentosum revertant with normal sensitivity was created by chemical mutagenesis. It repaired (6-4) photoproducts normally but not pyrimidine dimers and had near normal levels of repair replication, sister chromatid exchange, and mutagenesis from UV light. The rate of UV-induced mutation in a shuttle vector, however, was as high as the rate in the parental xeroderma pigmentosum cell line.
