UVHR is epigenetically inherited. UV survival assays were done as described in Fig. 1, with variations as indicated below. A Mother cell-free population. Cells were labeled with biotin immediately after the initial UV exposure at 50 J/m2 (+ UV), or after mock exposure (−UV). After the 4 h incubation, labeled mother cells were removed from the population with streptavidin-linked magnetic beads. The remaining unlabeled daughter cells were subsequently diluted, plated, and exposed to UV at 200 J/m2. *p < 0.01. B Isolated colonies from a single UV exposure at 50 J/m2, followed by a 4 h incubation. Thirty isolates from UV exposed set (+ UV) and 10 isolates from mock-exposed controls (−UV) were restreaked and incubated for ~ 3 days, and then subsequently cultured, diluted, plated, and exposed to UV (200 J/m2). Each isolate was tested twice, and values are reported as means. Horizontal bars indicate the geometric mean for each set of isolates. p > 0.1
