Two classes of Salmonella typhimurium mutants resistant to inhibitory methionine analogues and defective in methionine transport have been examined. A mutant of the first class, resistant to alpha-methylmethionine, was shown by conjugation analysis to possess a single mutation in the metP gene which

## Abstract Strains deficient in recombinational repair (__recA^β^__) failed to be reverted by MNNG. Caffeine was found to efficiently repress MNNGβinduced reversions with proficient and deficient (__uvrB^β^__) excision repair strains. The presence of the resistance plasmid pKM 101 had no influence
The mutagenic events induced by ciprofloxacin, a potent antimicrobial agent, have been characterized. For this, a battery of Hismutants of Salmonella typhimurium (hisG428, hisG46, hisC9070, and hisG1775 targets) that detects the six possible transitions and transversions [Levin and Ames (1986): Envi
