Abstract excerpt

The seg-3 mutant Escherichia coli does not support the maintenance of mini-F plasmid at 42 degrees C. We cloned the chromosomal DNA segment of the wild-type strain W3110 that complements the Seg- phenotype of this mutant. Cleavage mapping of this segment showed that it was derived from the 76-min...
