Abstract excerpt
In a previous search for mutants of Salmonella typhimurium that are defective in heme synthesis, one class that is apparently defective in 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) uptake (alu) was found. Here, I describe the characterization of these mutations. The mutations all map to a single locus near 77.5 min on the genetic map, which is transcribed counterclockwise. Nutritional tests, genetic and physical mapping, and...
