Three independent spontaneous mutations of prophage P1 affecting the ability of the phage to reproduce vegetatively are due to the insertion of a mobile genetic element, called IS30. The same sequence is also carried in the R plasmid NR 1-Basel, but not in the parental plasmid NR 1. Southern hybridi

Insertion sites of the transposable element IS186 were physically mapped in the genome of E. coli K12 strain BHB2600. This strain maintains four IS186 copies of which three, assigned to 0.3, 14.1 and 51.8 map min., share common map positions with the three IS186 copies in strains W3110 and HB101. Th
The fadD gene of Escherichia coli K12 was cloned and sequenced. The gene was identified by its ability to complement the corresponding mutant and by measuring the enzymatic activity after its expression in this mutant. The deduced polypeptide sequence exhibits similarity to other long chain acyl-CoA
