Abstract excerpt
The htrB gene was discovered because its insertional inactivation interfered with Escherichia coli growth and viability at temperatures above 32.5 degrees C, as a result of accumulation of phospholipids. The msbA gene was originally discovered because when cloned on a low-copy-number plasmid vector it was able to suppress the temperature-sensitive growth phenotype of an htrB null mutant as well as the...
