An experimental analysis of the fate of transposon Tn10 after excision from a proA::Tn10 site localized on the plasmid F' leads to the conclusions: 1. The precise excision is a progressive process. Its probability is estimated per time unit. 2. An excised Tn10 is always integrated into a different g

Phage MudII301 was used to isolate new periplasmic-leaky mutants of Escherichia coli K12 carrying an lkyB-lacZ gene fusion. The properties of strain JC2299 carrying the lkyB-2299 insertion mutation were identical to those of strain JC207 carrying the previously described lkyB-207 mutation. The LkyB-
The dam gene of E. coli can be inactivated by insertion of Tn9 or Mud phage. Strains bearing these mutations are viable indicating that the dam gene product is dispensable.
A strain which carries a mutation conferring clorobiocin resistance and temperature sensitivity for growth was isolated from Escherichia coli K12. Genetic mapping and the molecular weight of the gene product suggest that the mutation is in the cou gene, specifying a sub-unit of DNA gyrase. Nuclear o
