Abstract excerpt
tolA mutants of Escherichia coli K-12 release periplasmic proteins into the extracellular medium; they are sensitive to growth inhibitors such as cholic acid and tolerant to group A colicins and filamentous bacteriophage. Suppressor mutants of the tolA-876 allele were isolated by selecting for cholic acid resistant clones that did not release periplasmic ribonuclease I. One class of tolA suppressor strains...
