Copy-number mutants of plasmid pSC101 were isolated by u.v. mutagenesis and selection for elevated expression of ampicillin resistance. Three independent mutations were identical and mapped in codon 93 of the initiation protein RepA. The mutated plasmids were maintained at a level four to five times higher than that of the wild type. For one of them, it was determined that: (i) the mRNA of the autoregulated repA...
