✦ Synopsis

Resistance to virginiamycin S (VS, a type B synergimycin) has been mapped in Bacillus subtilis. Transduction experiments with phage PBS1 indicate that the gene for virginiamycin S resistance (VSR) is cotransduced with the markers pur A16 (20%) and cys A14 (46-49%). Transformation experiments indicate that the gene for virginiamycin S resistance maps between the markers for elongation factor G and erythromycin resistance, and is therefore located within the gene cluster of ribosomal proteins.

A streptomycin-resistant mutantant of Bacillus subtilis that is also asporogenous, was isolated and partially characterized. This strain, SRB15, sporulated at a frequency of about 1% compared to the wild type frequency of greater than 70%. The two phenotypes were inseparable by transformation, sugge

The gene hemD taking part in the formation of uroporphyrinogen III from porphobilinogen was mapped by two- and three-factor transduction crosses in Bacillus subtilis. This gene codes uroporphyrinogen III cosynthase. The gene hemD is linked to the hemA locus and is located between the hemA and pheA l

A new mapping method involving protoplast fusion in Bacillus subtilis is described. Protoplasts from an isogenic standard marker strain containing purA and from a strain containing both purB and the marker, "x", to be mapped were fused with polyethylene glycol, and purA+ purB+ fusants were selected.
