Abstract excerpt
The tonB gene of Enterobacter aerogenes was cloned, sequenced, and expressed in Escherichia coli. It complemented an E. coli tonB mutant as efficiently as E. coli tonB, except for colicin B and D sensitivities. However, colicin B and D sensitivities were complemented by a derivative in which the...
