โœฆ Synopsis


The genetic organisation of the ruv gene, a component of the SOS system for DNA repair and recombination in Eseheriehia toll, was investigated. New point mutations as well as insertions and deletions were generated using transposon TnlO inserted in eda as a linked marker for site specific mutagenesis, or directly as a mutagen. The mutations were ordered with respect to one another and previously isolated ruv alleles by means of transductional crosses. The direction of chromosome mobilization from ruv : : Mud(ApRlac) strains carrying F42lae + established that ruv is transcribed in a counterclockwise direction. Recombinant 2 phages able to restore UV resistance to ruv mutants were identified, and the ruv + region was subcloned into a low copy number plasmid. The ruv + plasmid was able to correct the extreme radiation sensitivity and recombination deficiency of ruv reeBC sbcB strains.

The Escherichia coli HU-1 was cloned by use of mixed synthetic oligonucleotides (17-mer) predicted from a portion of its amino acid sequence. The amino acid sequence of the HU-1 protein deduced from the nucleotide sequence is in good agreement with the published sequence. The nucleotide sequence has

A segment of the Escherichia coli genome which complements the ionising radiation sensitivity of the rorB mutation was cloned into pBR322. This DNA segment also complements the mitomycin C sensitivity of the rorB mutation. The gene was subcloned until defined in a fragment of 1.05 kb. Only one gene
