polar mutations in the left arm of bacteriophage lambda i434.by studying complementation between frameshift and nonsense mutants located in the structural genes for the head of bacteriophage lambdai434, we found mutations in gene b which are polar on genes c and d and one mutation in gene e which is polar on gene f.19714927522
role of exonuclease and beta protein of phage lambda in genetic recombination. v. recombination of lambda dna in vitro.the sequential action of lambda exonuclease and polynucleotide ligase upon redundant joint molecules is sufficient to produce intact polynucleotide chains and heat-stable, biologically active molecules of lambda dna, whereas the action of ligase alone is insufficient. these results (a) confirm the previously described mechanism of single-strand assimilation, including a subsidiary mechanism by which the further action of lambda exonuclease is arrested when a redundant strand is completely assimi ...19714934524
ultraviolet- and x-ray-induced responses of a deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase-deficient mutant of escherichia coli.escherichia coli k-12, polal(-) is a mutant strain whose extracts are deficient in kornberg deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) polymerase activity. we have compared the mutant and parental strains on the basis of a number of responses to ultraviolet (uv) and x-irradiation. for both types of radiation, the mutant is more sensitive by approximately the same factor as measured by reduction in colony formation, depression of dna synthesis, and enhancement of dna degradation. the rate of repair of x-ray-ind ...19714935330

purification and properties of 3-deoxy-d-arabinoheptulosonic acid-7-phosphate synthetase (phe) from a lambda arog+ transductant of escherichia coli.by incorporating arog, the structural gene for 3-deoxy-d-arabinoheptulosonic acid-7-phosphate (dahp) synthetase (phe), into the genome of a heat-inducible susr60 mutant of phage lambda, it has been possible to increase the intracellular levels of dahp synthetase (phe) in a lysogenized strain of escherichia coli some 15-fold over levels found in the wild-type strain. by using this strain, the enzyme has been purified approximately 2,000-fold compared with wild type, and various kinetic parameters ...19714937786

bacterial mutants in which the gene n function of bacteriophage lambda is blocked have an altered rna polymerase.bacterial mutants have been isolated, called gron, that block phage development by interference with the action of the product of the phage n gene. lambdatrp phages, which depend on the n product for the synthesis of tryptophan enzymes, do not make these enzymes in gron bacteria. two type of phage mutants have been isolated that can overcome the gron block. one type makes an altered n product, the other contains an n-bypass mutation. the gron mutation is closely linked to the rifamycin-resistanc ...19714943550
establishment and maintenance of repression by bacteriophage lambda: the role of the ci, cii, and c3 proteins.to define the events necessary for the establishment and maintenance of repression in a lambda-infected cell, we have studied the requirements for efficient synthesis of the ci protein ("lambda-repressor"). three classes of lambda mutants defective in the establishment of repression are also defective in the appearance of ci protein activity at the normal time. two of these mutational classes (cii(-) and ciii(-)) probably result from inactivation of lambda-specified proteins, but the third class ...19714943791
purification and base composition analysis of phage lambda early promoters.rna-polymerase of escherichia coli was allowed to bind to dna of phage lambda in the absence of precursors. the resulting complex was excised by nuclease digestion and the protected dna was recovered by phenol-extraction and ethanol precipitation. acrylamide gel electrophoresis of protected dna fragments reveals the existence of two distinct oligonucleotide peaks corresponding, respectively, to 45-52 and 7-10 nucleotide residues along with species of intermediate sizes. peak i molecules have two ...19714332016

on some genetic aspects of phage lambda resistance in e. coli k12.most mutations rendering e. coli k12 resistant to phage lambda, map in two genetic regions mala and malb.-the malb region contains a gene lamb specifically involved in the lambda receptor synthesis. twenty-one independent lamb mutations studied by complementation belonged to a single cistron. this makes it very likely that lamb is monocistronic. among the lamb mutants some are still sensitive to a host range mutant of phage lambda. mutations mapping in a proximal gene essential for maltose metab ...19724558324

isolation of the bacteriophage lambda receptor from escherichia coli.a factor which inactivates the phage lambda can be extracted from escherichia coli. this factor is a protein and is located in the outer membrane of the bacterial envelope. it is found in extracts of strains which are sensitive to phage lambda, but not in extracts of strains specifically resistant to this phage. we conclude that this factor is the lambda receptor, responsible for the specific adsorption of the phage lambda to e. coli cells. a partial purification of the lambda receptor is descri ...19734201774

transposition of r factor genes to bacteriophage lambda.transpositions of segments of r factor (antibiotic resistance plasmids) to bacteriophage lambda have been selected and characterized. cells of escherichia coli harboring r factors that determine kanamycin resistance were infected with phage lambda, and lambdakan transducing lines were obtained. each of the three examined is unusual when compared to lambda transducing phages containing e. coli chromosomal genes: the kan insertions (a) occur at several sites, each well removed from the integration ...19751059152
[competence in escherichia coli cells. iii. formation of competent states in escherichia coli x7026 and escherichia coli hfr h cells during storage in different conditions].the competence formation in 2 strains of escherichia coli x7026 and hfr h to isolated phage gamma dna after the prolonged treatment of cells with ca++ ions at low temperatures was investigated. in both strains studied the sensitivity of cells to phage lambda dna increased during several days of maintenance at 4 degrees c in 0.2 m cacl2, and reached the maximal value in 24-48 hours for e. coli hfr h cells, and in 72-96 hours for e. coli x7026 cells. cells maintained in cacl2 for 24 hours and more ...1975767199
isolation and properties of escherichia coli mutants which are nonpermissive for the growth of phage lambda.by selecting survivors of lambda phage infection, mutants of escherichia coli k12 that block reproduction cycle of the phage have been isolated. fourteen of these phage-tolerant mutants (lam mutants) were chosen and characterized biochemically and genetically. it was shown that these mutants were tolerant to infection by all the lambdoid phages, except for few cases, but they were susceptible to infection by a non-lambdoid temperate phage (phi299), p1 or t phages. the mutants can be divided into ...1975772257

proteolytic cleavage of bacteriophage lambda repressor in induction.the bacteriophage lambda repressor, a protein that maintains the lysogenic state of a bacterium containing a lambda prophage, is cleaved when the lysogen is induced by mitomycin c or ultraviolet light. this cleavage does not occur when induction is prevented by mutational alteration either of the phage repressor or of the host reca gene product. proteolytic cleavage may be the primary mechanism of repressor inactivation in this induction pathway, or it may follow a different event which causes t ...19751090931
mutations simultaneously affecting endonuclease ii and exonuclease iii in escherichia coli.we studied mutants of e. coli originally identified as being deficient in either endonuclease ii (deoxyribonucleate oligonucleotidohydrolase, ec 3.1.4.30) or exonuclease iii [deoxyribonucleate (double-stranded) 5'-nucleotidohydrolase, ec 3.1.4.27] activity. twelve independently derived mutants were tested, including three new endonuclease ii mutants. deficiency of one enzyme was always accompanied by deficiency of the other. furthermore, temperature-sensitivity of one activity was always accompa ...19751091930
electron microscope heteroduplex studies of sequence relations among bacterial plasmids: identification and mapping of the insertion sequences is1 and is2 in f and r plasmids.heteroduplex experiments between the plasmid r6 and one strand of the deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) of a lambda phage carrying the insertion sequence is1 show that is1 occurs on r6 at the two previously mapped junctions of resistance transfer factor (rtf) dna with r-determinant dna. from previous heteroduplex experiments, it then follows that is1 occurs at the same junctions in r6-5, r100-1, and r1 plasmids. heteroduplex experiments with the dna from a lambda phage carrying the insertion sequence ...19751092668
the biological activity of bacteriophage dna, prepared by the cationic detergent dilution technique.the preparation of phage lambda dna infecting e. coli k 12 with cationic detergent is described. this dna infects e. coli spheroblasts with the same efficiency as dna prepared by phenol methods.19751093138
mismatch repair in heteroduplex dna.dna with base pair mismatches was prepared by annealing mixtures of genetically marked dna from bacteriophage lambda. this heteroduplex dna was used to transfect bacteria under conditions minimizing recombination. genetic analysis of the progeny phages indicates that: (i) mismatch repair occurs, usually giving rise to a dna molecule with one chain with the genotype arising from repair and one parental chain. (ii) the frequency of repair of a given mismatch to wild type depends on the marker, ran ...19751094458
synthesis and degradation of early mrna in lambda phage.using two different escherichia coli mutants defective in elongation factors efg and efts required for peptide synthesis, lambda phage with or without a tof mutation was analysed for synthesis of early mrna by dna-rna hybridization technique. (1) in cp78g carrying temperature-sensitive elongation factor g, shift-up to high temperature (41 degrees c) in the middle of phage infection did not affect early mrna synthesis with lambdatof+ phage but did inhibit it with lambdatof- phage. (2) in hak88 ca ...19751101966
visualization of a novel junction in bacteriophage lambda dna.at early times after infection of a reca derivative of escherichia coli with lambdab221c126red270a42 phage, a low but significant proportion of intracellular lambda molecules show a novel junction. these junctions are also present, although in reduced numbers, in a lysate obtained at late times after infection of a reca+ host with lambdaciiciii phage. fine structure and denaturation mapping analyses showed that these junctions occur at homologous positions and that they are compatible with the o ...19751103134

induction of error-prone repair as a consequence of dna ligase deficiency in escherichia coli.dna ligase deficiency is shown to induce generalized mutator activity in e. coli. this mutator activity is unaffected by 3 mug/ml of chloramphenicol but is abolished both in lig-reca double mutants and by incubation with 20 mug/ml of chloramphenicol. dna ligase deficiency is also shown to reactivate ultraviolet light-irradiated phage lambda and t7 and to increase both spontaneous and ultraviolet light-induced mutagenesis in phage lambda, all of which are abolished in lig-reca strains. interactio ...19751105587
genetic consequences of transfection with heterduplex bacteriophage lambda dna.the role of rectification of heteroduplex heterozygotes in the formation of recombinant genotypes involving closely linked markers has been examined. heteroduplex molecules of bacteriophage lambda dna, heterozygous at several alleles, have been constructed and the genetic composition of phage present in infective centers derived by transfection with such molecules has been determined. allele loss and concomitant recombinant formation is frequent, and appears to reflect marker specificity as well ...19751107809
specific hydrolysis of the cohesive ends of bacteriophage lambda dna by three single strand-specific nucleases.procedures have been worked out for aspergillus nuclease s1 and mung been nuclease to quantitatively cleave off both of the 12-nucleotide long, single-stranded cohesive ends of lambdadna. this cleavage is indicated by the almost complete elimination of the repair incorporation of radioactive nucleotides by dna polymerase into the digested dna. with s1 nuclease, cleavage was complete at 10 degrees as well as at 30 degrees. under the conditions for quantitative cleavage of the single-stranded regi ...19751141222

role of the bacterial and phage recombination systems and of dna replication in genetic recombination of uv-irradiated phage lambda.in this paper are studied in e. coli k12 the influence of the bacterial rec and phage mu red recombination systems on the rescue of the o plus gene from the prophage by a superinfecting o minus phage, uv irradiated or not. in the absence of uv irradiation the red system produces more recombinants than does the rec system, and its action requires dna replication. the presence of uv lesions in the mu dna facilitates the action of the rec system, which is more efficient in this instance than the re ...1976785209
specialized transduction of colicin e1 dna in escherichia coli k-12.genetic studies were made on e. coli k-12 tm96, which carries recombinant molecules constructed by in vitro combination of colicin e1 dna and a dna fragment of e. coli for guanine synthesis derived from transducing phage. the recombinant molecules existed as stable plasmids within the cell and contained genes for colicin e1 immunity and the guaa enzyme (xanthosine 5'-monophosphate aminase) together with a part of the lambda genome, r through j: (r-a-f-j)+. a block of the lambda genome, int throu ...1976787989
a transducing bacteriophage lambda carrying the structural gene for elongation factor ts.a specialized transducing bacteriophage lambdadpolcdap d-9 has been isolated that carries the structural gene for ef-ts1 (tsf). the presence of ef-ts among the proteins synthesized under the direction of this phage in uvl-inactivated cells has been detected by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and has been verified by antibody precipitation. in an induced lysogen of this phage the relative rate of synthesis of ef-ts is increased 4-fold. evidence is presented which suggest that the structural g ...1976792684
induction of sigma factor synthesis in escherichia coli by the n gene product of bacteriophage lambda.thermoinduction of cells of e. coli carrying prophage lambdaci857 within the bfe gene brings about not only "escape synthesis" of core subunits of the dna-dependent rna polymerase (rna nucleotidyltransferase, nucleosidetriphosphate:rna nucleotidyltransferase, ec 2-7-7-6), but also a striking stimulation of sigma factor synthesis. the latter phenomenon, termed sigma induction, is generally observed after lambda phage infection or prophage induction. a series of experiments with various bacterial ...1976794877

location in bacteriophage lamdba dna of cleavage sites of the site-specific endonuclease from bacillus amyloliquefaciens h.the sites in escherichia coli bacteriophage lambda dna cleaved by the site-specific endonuclease isolated from bacillus amyloliquefaciens h (bami) are found to be at 0.114, 0.466, 0.580, 0.713, and 0.861 lambda units. the sites were located by analysis of the products of digestion of lambda dna and lambda-ara transducing phage dna, and verified by double digestion with bami and ecori.19761083914
insertion sequence is2 associated with int-constitutive mutants of bacteriophage lambda.we have examined mutations in bacteriophage lambda called int-c, which confer elevated constitutive expression on the int gene for prophage integration. one class of mutations, which map between the b538 and bio386 endpoints, does not appear to be associated with any major chromosomal modification, whereas the second class has the is2 insertion sequence in orientation ii within the region between gene int and the b538 endpoint, all int-c mutations are within gene xis, with the possible exception ...1977344135
genetic inversion in the formation of an hfr strain from a temperature-sensitive f' gal strain.an hfr strain (pb15) that carries a duplicated copy of the galactose operon genes flanking the integrated sex factor is unusually stable since it does not show excision of the repeated deoxyribonucleic acid segment. the right-hand galactose operon is in the normal orientation. deletion mutations that eliminate the right-hand galactose genes, the sex factor, and some of the left-hand operon have been isolated. mutants believed to have their left-hand galactose operon inverted were able to be indu ...1977318642
[the action of selected herbicides on bacteriophages and escherichia coli (author's transl)].the effect of eight herbicides on the multiplication of bacteria and bacteriophages was tested with escherichia coli, strains w1665f+ and c600, and with the rna-phage m12 and the dna-phage lambda in turbidimetric investigations and one-step growth experiments. e. coli is inhibited by seven of the herbicides investigated in concentrations of 10(-3)m, partly of 10(-4)m, too, and is promoted by some compounds in weaker concentrations. naphthylacetic acid, (nes) largely independent of its concentrat ...1977327728
