The product of the dye gene of Escherichia coli, mapping at 99-100 min, is required for expression of the sex factor F, and also appears to be involved in the regulation of envelope proteins. Mutation of dye thus results in loss of expression of the F-factor (Fex-), i.e. male sterility, and dye sens
A strain which carries a mutation conferring clorobiocin resistance and temperature sensitivity for growth was isolated from Escherichia coli K12. Genetic mapping and the molecular weight of the gene product suggest that the mutation is in the cou gene, specifying a sub-unit of DNA gyrase. Nuclear o
We describe mutants of Escherichia coli that decrease the plasmid copy number of pBR322 derivatives. One mutant was partially characterized genetically and its mutation, designated pcnB for plasmid copy number, was mapped to approximately 3 rain on the E. coli chromosome. This locus is distinct from
