✦ Synopsis

A mutation affecting the activity of the first enzyme in glutathione biosynthesis in E. coli K 12 has been mapped. The mutant allele called gshA is located by transduction in the pheA-nalB segment. The linkages with pheA and tyrA provide a convenient method for transfer of gshA to other strains and so introduce a very low level of non-protein sulfhydryl groups into the E. coli cells.

The pepN gene has been cloned into the multicopy plasmid pBR322. The restriction map of the insert was established and the gene was localized. By comparison with the restriction map of the plasmid pJP30 bearing the ompF region, it has been possible to order the ompF, asnS, and pepN genes. The ompF a

The trmC gene, responsible for the formation of 5-methylaminomethyl-2-thiouridine (mnm5s2U) from 2-thiouridine, present in the first position in the anticodon of some tRNAs, has been located at 50.5 min on the Escherichia coli K12 chromosome. Results from transductional mapping suggest that the trmC
