✦ Synopsis

The effects of different tnm mutations on the transposition of Tn3, Tn5, Tn10, Tn601, and bacteriophage Mu were studied. Five tnm mutations were placed into three phenotypic classes. The representatives of the first class, tnm-1 and tnm-2, caused a complete block of transposition of all Tn-elements studied; the representatives of the second class, tnm-3 and tnm-4, specifically affected Tn9 transposition while the tnm-5 mutation attributed to the third class caused formation of cointegrates between the donor genome of phage lambda carrying Tn-elements Tn3 or Tn5 and the recipient genome (bacterial chromosome).

Mutation of the ruv gene of E. coli is associated with sensitivity to radiation, and filamentous growth after transient inhibition of DNA synthesis. The filamentation of ruv strains is abolished by mutations in sfiA or sfiB that prevent SOS induced inhibition of cell division, but this does not rest

The most striking phenotype associated with superoxide dismutase (SOD) deficiency in Escherichia coli is the inability to grow in aerobic minimal medium, which is due to the sensitivity of several amino acid biosynthetic pathways to superoxide.

The transcriptional and translational events occurring during the induction of the lac operon, were separated by blocking the translational step, either by aminoacid starvation or by addition of chloramphenicol. It was found that the carbon source used during the subsequent translation, affected the
