Selection for defective reversion induction, after UV treatment of E. coli K 12, yielded uvm mutants. These mutants exhibited highly reduced or no UV mutability for all loci tested although they were moderately and normally mutable by X-rays and EMS, respectively. Uvm mutations confer only a slight

Uvm mutants of Escherichia coli K12 selected for defective UV reversion induction have previously been reported to differ considerably from the UV-reversion-less recA and lexA mutants with regard to survival or mutagenic response to UV, X-rays and alkylating agents. In the present study, the phenoty
An Escherichia coli K12 dnaB dnaC mutant was constructed by P1 transduction of the dnaC allele into a dnaB recipient stain. dnaB dnaC transductant were discriminated from dnaB mutants by their inability to grow at 40 degree C after lysogenization with phage P1bac. The dnaB dnaC mutant character was
Phenylalanine synthesis from glucose and ammonia was studied using a hyperproducing mutant of Escherichia coli. Kinetic parameters (typical values : 8.7 g phenylalanine/l, yield 05ucose 0.19 g/g, productivity 0.44 g/l/h) were similar to batch culture values.
## Abstract We have produced several mutants of __Escherichia coli__ thioredoxin (Trx) using a combined mutagenesis/chemical modification technique. The protein C32S, C35S, L78C Trx was produced using standard mutagenesis procedures. After unfolding the protein with guanidine hydrochloride (GdmCl),
The presence of the drug resistance plasmid pKM101 restored the ability of Escherichia coli umuC mutant strains to be mutated by methyl methanesulfonate. Inducible (Weigle) reactivation of ultraviolet-irradiated bacteriophage lambda was not observed in uvrA6 umuC mutant strains lacking pKM101 but wa
