The location of 14 independently isolated spontaneous pi A and pi B point mutants in the lambda P gene and their base exchanges were determined. It was found that the pi B mutation is one unique type mapping close to other pi A mutants. The number of possible pi A mutation sites could be estimated.
The E. coli suA mutant (T82), which is a suppressor of polarity by virtue of its impaired transcription termination factor (rho) activity, is shown to be an efficient suppressor of lambdaN- mutants. The relief of the N requirement by this host is reflected in a substantial restoration of growth and
