A genetic study was performed on a mutation which has caused loss of pyruvate formate lyase. The gene affected is designated pfl and is located close to ser C, i.e. at 20 mn on the chromosomal map of E. coli.
A method was developed for the isolation of spontaneous mutants of Escherichia coli K-12 with deletions extending from the srl operon to the adjacent recA gene. The srl-recA deletion mutants were extremely sensitive to dNA-damaging agents; unable to support growth of the feckless red gam mutant lamb
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
