Spontaneous mutation in the Escherichia coli lacI gene.

Genetics - 1 Oct 1991

Schaaper R M, Dunn R L

Abstract excerpt

To gain more detailed insight into the nature and mechanisms of spontaneous mutations, we undertook a DNA sequence analysis of a large collection of spontaneous mutations in the N-terminal region of the Escherichia coli lacI gene. This region of circa 210 base pairs is the target for dominant lacI mutations (i-d) and is suitable for studies of mutational specificity since it contains a relatively high density of...
