Abstract excerpt
The LamB-LacZ-PhoA tripartite fusion protein is secreted to the periplasm, where it exerts a toxicity of unknown origin during high-level synthesis in the presence of the inducer maltose, a phenotype referred to as maltose sensitivity. We selected multicopy suppressors of this toxicity that allow growth of the tripartite fusion strains in the presence of maltose. Mapping and subclone analysis of the suppressor...
