A genetic study was performed on a mutation which has caused loss of pyruvate formate lyase. The gene affected is designated pfl and is located close to ser C, i.e. at 20 mn on the chromosomal map of E. coli.
A new type of Escherichia coli K12 phoB mutant was isolated as 5-fluorouracil-plus-adenosine-resistant derivatives of a upp phoS,T strain. Such phoB mutants (called type III) differ from previously described phoB mutants (types I and II) in the synthesis pattern of phosphate-regulated periplasmic pr
To identify the nature and origin of spontaneous mutability we developed a screening procedure suitable to isolate antimutators showing a lower error rate than 10-10 per base per replication. Among about 500,000 mutagenized colonies we found 20 mutants showing a reduced spontaneous mutability. These
A mutant of E. coli has been isolated that is temperature-sensitive in respect of tryptophanase. When incubated at 60 degrees C, cell-free extracts of the mutant suffer inactivation of enzyme activity much more rapidly than similar extracts of the wild type. After lysogeny with a specialized transdu
