Abstract excerpt
In a companion study we have described the isolation of a series of mutants of Escherichia coli that replicate their DNA with increased fidelity. These mutants carry a mutation in the dnaE gene, encoding the alpha (polymerase) subunit of DNA polymerase III holoenzyme, which is responsible for the faithful replication of the bacterial chromosome. The mutants were detected as suppressors of the high mutability of a...
