Abstract excerpt
Three phenotypically stable mutants of the extremely thermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus have been isolated by screening for beta-galactosidase negative colonies on plates with X-Gal (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-beta-D- galactopyranoside). From one of these mutants an insertion element, designated ISC1217, was isolated and characterized. Sequence analysis of ISC1217 and of the regions adjacent to the...
