Genes coding for enzymes functioning in purine salvage pathways have been located on the chromosome of Escherichia coli. The gene add encoding adenosine deaminase was located by transduction at 31 min, the gene order was established to be man-uidA-add-aroD. A deletion covering man-uidA-add was obtai

β¦ Synopsis
Several mutants unable to utilize trehalose were isolated from Escherichia coli, Their genetic analysis led to determine the following gene order on the chromosomal map: pur B-dad R-tre-hem a-trp. Furthermore, the tre gene belongs to the inversion of the trp chromosomal region between E. coli and S. typhimurium.

The amounts of cytochrome b556 in the cytoplasmic membranes of several Escherichia coli K12 strains having F-prime factors and a lambda transducing phage were determined. The amount was amplified about two-fold in strains having F100-12 and F152, but not in strains having F100-11, F8 and lambda psu+
The trmD gene, which governs the formation of 1-methyl-guanosine(m1G) in transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA), has been located by phage P1 transduction at 56 min on the chromosomal map of Escherichia coli. Cotransduction to tyrA at 56 min is 80%. From the Clarke and Carbon collection a ColE1-tyrA+ hybr
It has previously been proposed, based on indirect evidence, that the Rho protein may control the expression of the rho gene. Using an in vitro system for the transcription and translation of the rho gene cloned into plasmid pBR322, we tested this hypothesis directly by monitoring the effect in vitr
