Abstract excerpt
We describe a genetic analysis of the vitamin B12 receptor of Escherichia coli. Through the use of informational suppression, we have been able to generate a family of receptor variants, each identical save for a single, known substitution (Ser, Gln, Lys, Tyr, Leu, Cys, Phe) at a known site. We have studied 22 different mutants, 14 in detail, distributed throughout the length of the btuB gene. Most amino acid...
