Adaptive mutation in Escherichia coli.
In 1988 John Cairns, Julie Overbaugh, and Stephan Miller published a paper entitled “The origin of mutants,” in which they suggested that bacteria could choose which mutations to make (11). Shortly thereafter, Cairns and I began collaborating on a National Science Foundation-funded project to investigate the genetic basis of what was popularly called “directed mutation” (although at the time we...
متن کاملRebuttal: adaptive mutation in Escherichia coli (Foster).
If mutations arose in nongrowing cells, as proposed in Foster’s paper (1), then stress-induced mutagenesis would seem inescapable. The plated population certainly grows very little. However, no evidence is provided that reversion occurs in this population and no effort is made to counter evidence to the contrary (see below)—that mutations actually arise in cells growing under selection within d...
متن کاملAdaptive reversion of a frameshift mutation in Escherichia coli.
Mutation rates are generally thought not to be influenced by selective forces. This doctrine rests on the results of certain classical studies of the mutations that make bacteria resistant to phages and antibiotics. We have studied a strain of Escherichia coli which constitutively expresses a lacI-lacZ fusion containing a frameshift mutation that renders it Lac-. Reversion to Lac+ is a rare eve...

15 صفحه اولthe effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation
in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.
