Abstract excerpt

Serratia marcescens mutants, which excrete Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase (APase) encoded by the plasmid-bearing phoA gene, were isolated after mutagenesis by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine. These mutants produced two to four times as much APase as did the parent strain under a phosp...
