A precise genetic-physical map of the tnailv region at 82 rain on the genetic map of E. coli is obtained through deletion mapping and analysis by restriction endonuclease EcoRI of plasmids, derived from an F ~ carrying the genes between aroE and ilv. A locus, designated het, which in its diploid st

✦ Synopsis
Small multicopy plasmids carrying the Escherichia coli genes ksgA and pdxA were constructed by ligation in vitro of an EcoRI restriction fragment from lambda ksg10 (Andrésson and Davies, 1980a) into the EcoRI sites of the ColE1 plasmids RSF2124 and pVH51. Cleavage maps of the plasmids were determined for 21 different restriction enzymes. The ksgA gene was located in a 750 basepairs (bp) region 1,450 bp clockwise of the EcoRI site in folA: pdxA is in a 2,040 bp region immediately clockwise of ksgA.

Several conditional lethal mutants of Escherichia coli have been analysed genetically using generalized transduction and lambda transducing vectors. Three temperature-sensitive ftsE mutants were found as was a cold-sensitive ftsE mutant. A new gene was found which mapped close to ftsE, namely ftsS.
A 24 kilobase pair region of the E. coli chromosome surrounding the dnaG gene has been cloned and characterized. A lambda phage library was constructed by ligating a Sau3A( decreases GATC) partial DNA digest of the entire E. coli chromosome into the lambda BamHI(G decreases GATCC) cloning vector cha
The histidine utilization (hut) operons of Klebsiella aerogenes were cloned into pBR322. The hut genes are wholly contained on a 7.9 kilobase pair fragment bounded by HindIII restriction sites and expression of hut is independent of the orientation of the fragment with respect to pBR322. A restricti
