Abstract: | Two types of mutants unable to excrete hemolysin were obtained when E. coli 5K carrying the multicopy hemolytic recombinant plasmid pANN202-312 was mutagenized with Mu d1. One type is altered in the plasmid hly-specific gene, hlyBb, but the other is caused by an insertion of Mu d1 into a chromosomal locus. |
