The induction of phenotypic wild-type revertants in the progeny of an unirradiated or UV-irradiated temperature-sensitive late mutant of simian virus 40 was studied after low multiplicity passages in normal or UV-irradiated confluent monkey kidney cells. The production of wild-type revertants in the progeny of undamaged tsBC245 was followed by infecting the cells at distinct times after irradiation of the cells. Mutation frequencies reached a maximum when infection was delayed for 3--4 days after irradiation of the host cells, and declined gradually thereafter. Virus grown in unirradiated cells did not show such an alteration in mutation frequency. The temporarily higher mutation frequency of virus in UV-pretreated cells is due to a transient mutator activity operating in these cells rather than to an increased number of replications performed in UV-irradiated cells. A similar time course was found for the reactivation of UV-damaged SV40. This might suggest that reactivation and mutagenesis are manifestations of the same process. The yield of mutants due to irradiation of the virus alone was enhanced when infection was delayed for some days after the cells reached confluency; UV pretreatment of the host cells did not enhance the level of mutation obtained by UV irradiation of the virus.
