DNA fragments of 3.4 kb containing the gyrB gene were cloned from Escherichia coli KL-16 and from spontaneous nalidixic acid-resistant mutants. The mutations (nal-24 and nal-31) had been determined to be in the gyrB gene by transduction analysis. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the cloned DNA fragme

A suppressor mutation of a temperature-sensitive mutant of ribosomal protein L24 (rplX19) was mapped close to the lon gene by genetic analysis and was shown to affect protease LA. The degradation and the synthesis rates of individual ribosomal proteins were determined. Proteins L24, L14, L15 and L27
The firA200 mutation of E. coli not only renders RNA synthesis thermosensitive but also eliminates the high-level resistance to rifampicin associated with certain mutations in the beta subunit of the RNA polymerase. A priori, the firA gene is likely to code for an essential component of the transcri
