Abstract excerpt
An Escherichia coli strain bearing the dnaQ49 mutation, which results in a defective epsilon subunit of DNA polymerase III, and carrying the lexA71 mutation, which causes derepression of the SOS regulon, is totally unable to maintain high-copy-number plasmids containing the umuDC operon. The stra...
