Abstract excerpt
A transposon Tn5 mutagenesis library was generated from Caulobacter crescentus strain NA1000, and clones with deficiency in survival in a high concentration of NaCl were selected. One of these clones, 37G10, has the Tn5 integrated within the coding region of the transcription termination factor Rho. Analysis of this mutant phenotype showed that the cells are motile and present a normal cell cycle, but have a...
