A genetic study has been performed on a set of mutations which prevent the replication of F-factors in Escherichia coli K-12. The gene affected is designated seg and has been located by transduction in the serB-thr segment of the chromosome. The seg gene does not appear to be related to the dnaC loc
Media: Mineral medium (MM; TANAKA et ul. 1967) plus 5 pg ml-' of thiamine hydrochloride, 20 pg ml-' of L-amino acids as required (except for homoserine; 80 pg mi-'), and the carbon source at 2 gl-', was used. This medium was supplemented, when necessary, with 15 pg of tetracycline-HC1 and/or 500 pg
The most striking phenotype associated with superoxide dismutase (SOD) deficiency in Escherichia coli is the inability to grow in aerobic minimal medium, which is due to the sensitivity of several amino acid biosynthetic pathways to superoxide. We have isolated two classes of pseudorevertants that g
