In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, phosphate limitation results in the synthesis of several protein species. We report the cloning of the P. aeruginosa alkaline phosphatase structural gene, phoA, and we show that this gene is regulated normally in Escherichia coli. We have also identified and cloned two P.

Specific xylose utilization mutants of Escherichia coli were isolated that had altered xylose isomerase ( xylA ), xylulokinase ( xylB ), and regulatory ( xylR ) or transport ( xylT ) activities. We screened the Clarke and Carbon E. coli gene bank and one clone, pLC10 -15, was found to complement the
Using methods of in vitro recombination we constructed hybrid plasmids that can suppress the increased methylmethane sulfonate sensitivity caused by alkB mutation. Since the cloned DNA fragment was mapped at 47 rain on the Escherichia coli K12 genetic map, an area where the alkB gene is located, we
Restriction maps of several recombinant plasmids representing a section of the E. coli K12 chromosome 35,000 bp in size with the genes phoA, proC and phoB were prepared. The orientation of phoA and the exact position of its N-terminal end on this map were determined by identifying a subfragment whic
The gene, prs, encoding phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) synthetase of Escherichia coli was isolated from a library of E. coli genes cloned in the bacteriophage 2D69 vector. A strain with a temperature-lethal defect in PRPP synthetase, (prs-2), was used as the host and cloning was performed by lys
