— Unscheduled DNA synthesis has been measured at several times during the differentiation of cultured rat skeletal muscle cells in response to exposures to 254nm UV light. There is no change in the amount of repair DNA synthesis as the cells fuse and differentiate from postmitotic prefusion myoblasts to multinucleated contracting myotubes.
