Using a modified lambda phage as a vector and a procedure developed in Dr. C. Schnaitman's laboratory, we have cloned the structural gene for protein K from an Escherichia coli K1 strain to an E coli K-12 strain. The cloned inserts consist of two HindIII fragments, 4 kb and 6.5 kb in size. The prote

The exbB locus of Escherichia coli is involved in the uptake of certain iron(III) siderophore compounds, of vitamin B12 and of certain colicins. Outer membrane receptor proteins are essential constituents of the corresponding uptake systems. The DNA carrying the exbB locus was cloned into pACYC184 a
We have isolated a strain carrying a fusion of the beta-galactosidase structural gene to the promoter of the uxuR regulatory gene with the aid of the Casadaban Mud (Aprlac) phage. Analysis of mutants with deletions that were derived from the uxuR::Mud1 insertion strain confirmed the counterclockwise
A temperature-sensitive mutation in the dnaJ gene of Escherichia coli K12 is described which affects replication of the bacterial DNA. The gene is located adjacent to the dnaK gene described previously (Saito and Uchida, 1977). The physical and functional organization of the dnaJ-dnaK region was stu
Gene libraries from the magnetotactic bacterium, Aquaspirillum magnetotacticum were constructed in Escherichia coli with cosmids pLAFR3 and c2RB as vectors. Recombinant cosmids able to complement the thr-1, leuB, and proA mutations of the host were identified. The Pro+ recombinant cosmid restored wi
