Abstract excerpt

Among Escherichia coli tolZ mutants tolerant to colicins E2, E3, and D, one, KHI10, had a high frequency of lambda lysogenization, like the tolZ21 mutant, but unlike tolZ21 KHI10 grew on nonfermentable carbon sources. The tolZ10 gene of KHI10 was cloned and sequenced, and found to have a silent m...
