✦ Synopsis


Ten out of 43 missense mutations in the lacZ gene of Escherchia coli gave rise to polypeptide chains that were degraded in vivo. While many of the mutants appeared to be fully or partially CRM-, there appeared to be no obvious correlation between degradation, map position, altered subunit association and the half-life of the mutant proteins.

Trimethoprim inhibits dihydrofolate reductase. Mutations conferring trimethorpim-resistance on E coli K12 result in either an altered reductase with decreased affinity for the drug, or in 2-30 fold higher levels of the enzyme. Studies of the latter class of mutants indicate that dihydrofolate reduct
