چکیده

Procedures are described for the isolation of conditional lethal mutants of mouse L-60T cells. The mutant lines were temperature sensitive by the following criteria: (a) colony-forming ability, (b) growth in suspension culture, and (c) rate of uptake of tritiated-thymidine.

DNA ligase mutants of Escherichia coli.

A procedure is described for the isolation of Escherichia coli mutants with either excess or deficient DNA ligase activity. A mutant that overproduces DNA ligase supports the growth of ligase-defective (gene 30 mutant) T4 phages. Even T4 rII-gene 30 double mutants, which are able to grow in normal E. coli, cannot grow in cells deficient in DNA ligase. A functional DNA ligase, supplied either by...

Isolation of morphological mutants of Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

Morphological mutants were isolated from a wild strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens at a high frequency by treatment with a nitrosoguanidine. Seventeen of the 20 mutants isolated were temperature-sensitive. At 27 C, the mutant cells were rod-shaped and at 37 C, spherical or branched, whereas the wild-type cells were rod-shaped at both temperatures.

Isolation and preliminary characterization of temperature-sensitive mutants of influenza virus.

Isolation of temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants was attempted from the WSN strain of influenza A virus which was grown and assayed in MDBK cells. After growth of wild-type virus in the presence of 5-fluorouracil, 15 ts mutants were selected for which the ratio of plaquing efficiency at 39.5 C to that at 33 C was 10(-3) or less. In pairwise crosses of ts mutants, recombination and complementatio...

Large-scale automated isolation of Escherichia coli mutants with thermosensitive DNA replication.

We have screened about 1.4 million colonies of Escherichia coli K-12 for their ability to grow on nutrient agar at 30 degrees and 41 degrees. Among the 2266 temperature-sensitive mutants found, 110 were defective in DNA synthesis but not in protein synthesis at 41 degrees. Three of these dna mutations mapped at two previously undescribed loci on the E. coli genetic map and may represent new gen...
