β¦ Synopsis
Methylation of adenine in the GATC-sequence of the -35 region of the trpR promoter decreases activity by 2-3 fold.

The properties of minicell producing mutants of Escherichia coli deficient in gentic recombination were examined. Experiments were designed to test recombinant formation in conjugal crosses, survival following UV-irradiation in cells, and the state of DNA metabolism in minicells. The REC- phenotypes
DNA fragments of phage PM2 restricted with Hin dIII endonuclease was cloned in the vector pBR 322 in an Escherichia coli K12 host. The attempt to clone full length PM2 DNA restricted with PstI endonuclease has been unsuccesful. From six randomly chosen recombinant clones DNA was purified and analyse
## Abstract This paper presents further parameters influencing the competence, the process of DNA uptake and the efficiency of plating of CaCl~2~βtreated __E. coli__ K12 strains. We have found that the process of DNA uptake depends not only on the treatment of bacteria with a certain CaCl~2~βconcen
