The plasmid pJSF6, a derivative of pBR327, could be maintained at 30 degrees C in strains of Escherichia coli containing the strong rho mutation, rho-15. Plasmids extracted from rho-15 cells were always less negatively supercoiled than plasmids from rho+ cells. Transduction experiments designed to s
Chi sites are examples of special sites enhancing homologous recombination in their region of the chromosome. Chi, SG-C-T-G-G-T-G-GY, is a recognition site for the RecBC enzyme, which nicks DNA near Chi as it unwinds DNA. A molecular model ofgenetic recombination incorporating these features is revi
Genetic recombination of phage lambda DNA mediated by Rec function of Escherichia coli was studied in the absence of duplication, transcription, translation, and maturation. Cells were jointly infected with double amber mutants, lambda D-F-I and lambda S-R-, and incubated in the presence of chloramp
A system for detecting a spontaneous deletion in Escherichia coli was developed and the role of DNA gyrase in deletion formation was studied. A derivative of 2plac5, 2AM36, was isolated in which whole pBR322 DNA was inserted in the lacZ gene and 227 bp of the lac gene duplicated at both sides of the
