Abstract
The mutations in nine independently isolated temperature-sensitive mutants of Escherichia coli, which exhibited penicillin tolerance and induction of the stringent response at the restrictive temperature, were assigned to two new loci designated lytA (7 alleles) and lytB (2 alleles) at 58 and 0.4 min on the linkage map, respectively. Key words: bacteriolysis, penicillin tolerance, stringent response.Keywords
