DNA of Bacillus subtilis proficient in excision repair (hcr+) was introduced into Angiografinpurified competent cells of an excision repair-deficient strains UVS-1 (hcr-1). The hcr+ gene was found to affect the UV-survival curve of the cells, giving rise to a UV-resistant component. However, a consi

polC, the gene specifying the structure of the replication-specific DNA polymerase III of B. subtilis, was mapped by exploiting azp-12, a mutation conferring resistance to azopyrimidine which determines a mutant, azopyrimidine-resistant enzyme. azp-12 was located in the area of the pyrA locus and is
Plasmid pC194-1, a mutant of pC194, and chimeric derivatives of pC194-1 are segregationally unstable in B. subtilis. Such instability could be enhanced by exposure of pC194-1-carrying cells to methyl methanesulfonate. pC194-1 is distinct from pC194 in the addition of two A:T base pairs within the pr
Bacillus subtilis Marburg is nonpermissive for the multiplication of bacteriophages SP10 and phi NR2. A permissive mutant was derived from the Marburg strain, and the genetic determinants of non-permissiveness were analyzed by PBS1 transduction. The simultaneous presence of two genes as mutant allel
We have cloned a 14 kb DNA segment containing the coding sequence (polC) for DNA polymerase III (PolIII) from the Bacillus subtilis chromosome. The plasmid carrying the sequence, pRO10, directs the synthesis of the 160 kDa PolIII protein and three additional polypeptides in Escherichia coli maxicell
