✦ Synopsis

We were kindly provided by Z. al-Doori (Dept. of Molecular Biology, University of Edinburgh) with a hybrid plasmid produced by in vitro techniques, pZD23 (A1- Doori et al. 1982). This plasmid is derived from pZD100, which consists of a 2drpoBC18 (=2drpoB3) prophage inserted into RP42att, by a deletion which has removed almost all 2 sequences leaving the host cell non-temperature-sensitive.

The lac operon shows anomalous expression in Proteus mirabilis: the maximal induced level is 10% or less of that in E. coli, while repression reduces this by a factor of only 2-5. We have sought to determine whether this effect relates in any way to CRP-mediated activation of expression, by comparin

The lac operon introduced into Proteus mirabilis shows two anomalies of expression: the maximal induced level is reduced by about an order of magnitude, and the basal level becomes about 100 times higher than in E. coli, as a result of which the induction ratio appears very small, around 2-5 in cont

The expression and stability of Escherichia coli F-primes in Proteus mirabilis is examined. It is possible to consecutively introduce, and stably maintain, the DNA of several E. coli F-primes in P. mirabilis in the absence of selective pressure for all or some of the plasmids. Additionally, we can r

Various Escherichia coli K12 Hfr donors transfer at low frequency portions of the E. coli genome to Proteus mirabilis. By remating such Proteus hybrids with the same or a different E. coli Hfr strain, other genetic characters could be added to yield diploid Proteus hybrids which contained more than
