DNA-dependent RNA polymerase has been found to be preferentially released at 43 ° C from the folded nucleoids of an E. coli dnaA ts mutant when compared with the same nucleoids at 30 ° C or with nucleoids of a dnaA + strain at either 30 ° or 43 ° C. The polypeptides released are identical in molecul
Spontaneously-occurring rifampicin-resistant mutants that survive on low (20 micrograms ml-1) but not high drug concentrations (200 micrograms ml-1) have been isolated. One such mutation appears to map close to residue 650 on the beta structural gene. RNA polymerase from low-level resistant strains
RNA polymerase was isolated from two suppressed rpoB amber strains exhibiting relaxed control over RNA synthesis in vivo. In vitro transcription analysis of these mutant holoenzymes carrying defined substitutions at known sites in the beta subunit clearly shows that single amino acid changes in beta
A single species of RNA polymerase is responsible for the transcription of genetic material in Escherichia coli; and, each component of this essential enzyme is encoded by a single gene. Nevertheless, we report the characterisation of a viable deletion mutant lacking about 165 bp in the region codin
