Mutants of Escherichia coli K12 requiring glutamine as a nitrogen source were isolated, and characterized as lacking glutamine synthetase activity. Temperature sensitive revertants of one of the mutants had a heat labile glutamine synthetase, while temperature insensitive revertants had a glutamine
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
