Mutation to erythromycin dependence in Escherichia coli K-12.
A nitrosoguanidine-induced mutant of Escherichia coli K-12 strain JC12 was absolutely dependent on erythromycin or related macrolide antibiotics for growth. The only other drugs which permitted growth (lincomycin and chloramphenicol) are, like the macrolides, inhibitors of the 50S ribosome. The order of relative effectiveness of these drugs was macrolides > lincomycin > chloramphenicol. Rates o...
متن کاملSecond acriflavine sensitivity mutation, acrB, in Escherichia coli K-12.
A novel acriflavine-sensitive mutant was isolated. The mutation was referred to as acrB1 and was demonstrated to be located at min 82.
متن کاملTransduction in Escherichia Coli K-12.
SYSTEM of genetic transduction has been discovered in the sexually fertile A K-12 strain of Escherichia coli. This transduction is mediated by lambda, a temperate phage for which K-12 is normally lysogenic. The distinctive features of the lambda-K-12 system include the following: (1) The transductions are limited to a cluster of genes for galactose fermentation. The GaZ loci are closely linked ...
متن کاملHfr Strains of Escherichia coli K-12
Since the first reports by Cavalli-Sforza (9) and Hayes (24) of strains of Escherichia coli K-12 which are conjugational donors of chromosomal markers at high frequency (Hfr strains), many other Hfr strains have been isolated and our understanding of the mechanisms involved in Hfr formation has increased considerably. All Hfr strains arise from the integration of a conjugative plasmid into the ...
متن کاملPhosphoglucomutase mutants of Escherichia coli K-12.
Bacteria with strongly depressed phosphoglucomutase (EC 2.7.5.1) activity are found among the mutants of Escherichia coli which, when grown on maltose, accumulate sufficient amylose to be detectable by iodine staining. These pgm mutants grow poorly on galactose but also accumulate amylose on this carbon source. Growth on lactose does not produce high amylose but, instead, results in the inducti...
