Abstract excerpt
A temperature-sensitive mutation in a new Escherichia coli gene, located at 62.5 min on the linkage map and designated lytF, resulted in bacteriolysis at the restrictive temperature. Temperature sensitivity and lytF-mediated lysis were simultaneously suppressed by either of two previously described unlinked mutations designated smhA1 and smhB1. The smhA1 and smhB1 alleles were originally isolated as specific...
