Extragenic suppressor mutations for dnaA (Ts) mutations mapping in the rpoB gene (beta-subunit of RNA polymerase) were isolated by selection of spontaneous rifampicin resistant mutants and screening for temperature resistance. Six rpoB mutations were analysed for suppression of 12 different dnaA (Ts

The dasC mutation, an extragenic suppressor of dnaA46, was mapped by P1 transduction near the rep, trxA, rho region of the Escherichia coli chromosome. The dasC mutation could not be separated from trxA by P1 transduction indicating that dasC and trxA are allelic. Multicopy plasmids containing an in
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
Amber mutants of Escherichia coli K-12 affected in the structural gene (rpoD) for th a subunit ofRNA polymerase have been obtained from a strain harboring a temperature-sensitive amber suppressor (supF-Ts6) which is active only at low temperatures. These mutants grow normally at low temperature (30
An amber mutation has been induced in the gene rpsA (which codes for ribosomal protein S1) of Escherichia coli K-12 strain in the presence of an amber suppressor (supD) and mutations sueA, sueB and sueC that additively enhance the efficiency of suppression. That the amber mutation has occurred in th
