## Abstract The plasmids harbouring the __rel__A gene under an inducible promoter allowed us to increase the guanosine 5β²βdiphosphateβ3β²βdiphosphate (ppGpp) concentration in __Escherichia coli__ cells without any starvation and thus, to directly investigate the effect of ppGpp on DNA replication.

Thermosensitive mutants of E. coli defective in DNA replication were tested for their capacity to support multiplication of phiA and phiX174. At the restrictive temperature, the viral growth was markedly affected in dnaH, dnaZ, or ligts7 mutants. Even when these strains were transfected with RF1 mol
Mutants of Escherichia coli completely deficient in RNase H activity were isolated by inserting transposon Tn3 into the structural gene for RNase H, rnh, and its promoter. These rnh- mutants exhibited the following phenotypes; (1) the mutants grew fairly normally, (2) rnh- cells could be transformed
