A method for selection of constitutive cysB mutation is described which takes advantage of the resistance of cysteine constitutive mutants to 1,2,4-triazole. Since cysM cysK double mutants are cysteine auxotrophs, by selecting for triazole resistance in cysM strains, mutants arising under this condi

A defect in the repression of the de novo purine biosynthetic enzymes was detected among purA mutants of Salmonella typhimurium. We suggest that the defect is caused by an altered purine regulation gene (purR) which affects the response level of at least five of the de novo enzymes to repression by
We have cloned the complete functional ompB locus of Salmonella typhimurium LT-2 into Escherichia coli K-12 using a cosmid vector and in vitro packaging into lambda. The ompB locus of Salmonella was found to complement both envZ and ompR mutations in E. coli as well as an ompR mutation of Salmonella
