Abstract: | Summary Several conditional lethal mutants of Escherichia coli have been analysed genetically using generalized transduction and lambda transducing vectors. Three temperature-sensitive ftsE mutants were found as was a cold-sensitive ftsE mutant. A new gene was foud which mapped close to ftsE, namely ftsS. Both cell division genes map close to the gene which controls the heat-shock regulon (htpR). |
