The defects of temperature-sensitive dnaA and dnaN mutants of Escherichia coli are complemented by a recombinant lambda phage, which carries the bacterial DNA segment composed of two EcoRI segments of 1.0 and 3.3 kilobases. Derivatives of the phage, which have an insertion segment of Tn3 in the dnaA

A specialized transducing lambda phage carrying the dnaN and dnaA genes of Escherichia coli specifies two proteins of about 41 and 48 kilodaltons (kd). The temperature-sensitive mutations, dnaN59 and dnaA167, were found to result in altered isoelectric points of the 41 and 48 kd proteins, respective
The bifunctional enzyme imidazoleglycerolphosphate dehydratase and histidinolphosphate phosphatase is encoded by the hisB gene. The fourth gene of the histidine operon, hisB, was cloned and mapped on a 2,300 base pair DNA fragment. In the present study we report the complete nucleotide sequence of t
We have constructed a pBR322 plasmid derivative which expresses dnaA protein under the control of the E. coli lac UV5 promotor. Expression of the dnaA protein from the plasmid is inducible by isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactoside. In a dnaA+ strain induction has no effect on the accumulation of DNA. In c
