We have cloned the tolC gene of E. coli K-12 into pSF2124 by using transposon Tn10 as the marker to first isolate the relevant DNA fragment. The gene is on a 10.5 kb EcoRI fragment, and Tn5 insertion mutagenesis locates the gene near one end of this EcoRI fragment. An EcoRI-PstI fragment has been su

A new type of Escherichia coli K12 phoB mutant was isolated as 5-fluorouracil-plus-adenosine-resistant derivatives of a upp phoS,T strain. Such phoB mutants (called type III) differ from previously described phoB mutants (types I and II) in the synthesis pattern of phosphate-regulated periplasmic pr
The promoter of the threonine operon was joined to the structural genes of the lac operon in Escherichia coli K 12. The synthesis of beta-galactosidase was thus repressed by threonine plus isoleucine in the fusion strains. To isolate mutations which affect the expression of the threonine operon, alt
Mutants carrying recF143 or recF144 show wild type levels of host cell reactivation of UV-irradiated lambdavir and wild type rates of excision gap closure in repairing UV damage to their own DNA. The same mutants showed reduced rates of postreplication repair strand joining. When uvrA- recF- or uvrB
