Abstract excerpt
The isolation and properties of strains of Escherichia coli carrying mutations affecting either the low affinity transport for gluconate (gene gntU) or the thermoresistant gluconokinase (gene gntK) are described. A lesion of each type was genetically characterized by transduction experiments. Bot...
