Phage Mu has been inserted into the structural gene for cytidine deaminase (cdd). By the use of phage 2 (lac, Mu) the promoter for the cdd gene has been fused to lacZ. In these strains lacZ expression is regulated by the cytR repressor protein and is therefore induced by cytidine. The fusion strains
Phage MudII301 was used to isolate new periplasmic-leaky mutants of Escherichia coli K12 carrying an lkyB-lacZ gene fusion. The properties of strain JC2299 carrying the lkyB-2299 insertion mutation were identical to those of strain JC207 carrying the previously described lkyB-207 mutation. The LkyB-
