Abstract excerpt
The Escherichia coli strain cs2-68 is a cold-sensitive (c) mutant that forms a long filamentous cell at 20 degrees C with a large nucleoid mass in its central region. We have recently shown that the pcsA68 mutation causing the cs phenotype is a single-base substitution within the dinD gene, a DNA damage-inducible gene which maps at 82 min. Since null mutants of the pcsA (dinD) gene are viable, with no discernible...
