[Features of genome expression of phage transposon D3112 of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Escherichia coli bacteria: dependence of bacterial phenotype on copy number of D3112 genome].

Abstract excerpt

Escherichia coli (RP4 :: D3112) bacteria manifest Tcs phenotype (thirty centigrade sensitivity), i.e. the cells do not divide and form colonies under conditions of lowered temperature (30 degrees C and lower), while cells grow normally at 42 degrees C. In this work it is demonstrated that replication-transposition of D3112 and the Tcs phenotype depend on no recA system of E.coli. Following events lead to the loss...
