Screening of random fragments of Escherichia coli genomic DNA for their ability to increase the novobiocin resistance of a hypersusceptible (Delta)acrAB mutant resulted in the isolation of a plasmid containing baeR, which codes for the response regulator of the two-component regulatory system BaeSR. When induced for expression, baeR cloned in multicopy plasmid pTrc99A significantly increased th...

The lecithin which is used in cardiolipin antigens for the sero-diagnosis of syphilis is extracted from beef heart tissue or egg yolk by the methods of Pangborn, Maltaner, Tompkins, Beecher, Thompson, and Flynn (1951). The product is actually a mixture of individual lecithins containing chiefly unsaturated but also some saturated fatty acids, the composition varying with the source and method o...

In this paper, we give connection between the order of the generalized Baer-invariant of a pair of finite groups and its factor groups, when ? is considered to be the specific variety. Moreover, we give a necessary and sufficient condition in which the generalized Baer-invariant of a pair of groups can be embedded into the generalized Baer-invariant of pair of its factor groups.
