The dnaA167 mutant of Escherichia coli, N167, maintains, on the average, two replicating chromosomes per cell at the permissive growth temperature of 30 degrees C and only one per cell at the higher permissive growth temperature of 38 degrees C. When the growth temperature of this mutant is changed
Several conditional lethal mutants of Escherichia coli have been analysed genetically using generalized transduction and lambda transducing vectors. Three temperature-sensitive ftsE mutants were found as was a cold-sensitive ftsE mutant. A new gene was found which mapped close to ftsE, namely ftsS.
