A new ribosomal mutant resistant to erythromycin is described. The product of the gene eryC seems to be implicated in the assembly of the two ribosomal subunits, particularly in the maturation process of the RNA 23S and 16S.
A method to obtain amber mutations in ribosomal protein genes is described. tit relies on the P1-mediated localized mutagenesis (Hong and Ames, 1971) and on the fact that the recipient strain contains (a) an efficient but genetically unstable suppressor, (b) a particular thermoinducible lambda proph
A strain of Escherichia coli, VT, which spontaneously gives rise to mutations in many ribosomal proteins, has been used in conjunction with chemical mutagenesis and varying the subsequent incubation temperature to select mutants which have alterations in every ribosomal protein amenable to analysis
Temperature-sensitive mutants that exhibit an altered haemolytic phenotype were isolated from Escherichia coli harbouring the plasmid pHly152. Complementation with recombinant plasmids carrying one of the four hly genes (C, A, B or D) allowed localization of the hly(ts) mutations. A ts mutation in h
