✦ Synopsis

Starting with a strain containing a malK-lacZ fusion, a series of lambda plaque-forming phages which carry varying amounts of the malE,F operon have been isolated. We have used these phages to construct a deletion map of the malE,F operon. The construction of this deletion map has led to the identification of a new gene, malG. The malG gene is located distal to malF. The malG gene product is a protein required for the active transport of maltose and maltodextrins.

A series of deletions, Mu insertions and point mutations affecting the malK-lamB operon have been isolated. They were used to establish a deletion map of this operon, which could be divided in 27 intervals, with 16 in malK and 11 in lamB. One interesting feature of this map is the lack of randomness

lamB, the structural gene for lambda receptor, is the second gene of the malK-lamB operon in the malB region of the Escherichia coli K12 chromosome. lamB is essentially not expressed in the absence of an active malT gene product, the activator of the maltose regulon.

The regulatory region of the gua operon of Escherichia coli is contained within a 2.1 kb EcoR1 restriction fragment isolated from a lambda pgua transducing phage. This DNA fragment was inserted into pPV33-II, a promoter-cloning vector, where it activated the gene(s) for tetracycline resistance. The
