The Cpx proteins of Escherichia coli K-12: evidence that cpxA, ecfB, ssd, and eup mutations all identify the same gene.

Abstract excerpt

An existing cpxA(Ts) mutant was resistant to amikacin at levels that inhibited completely the growth of a cpxA+ and a cpxA deletion strain and failed to grow as efficiently on exogenous proline. These properties are similar to those of mutants altered in a gene mapped to the cpxA locus and variou...
