Main Points of the Paper

  • Isolation of mutant (X71-54) with a severe defect in TMG accumulation
    • possesses elevated membrane carrier activity, therefore the rate of efflux is increased

Materials and Methods Used

  • Parent Strain: X71 (i-z+y+a-, proC-, try-, B1-, F-)
  • Additional Strain: X71-54
  • Additional Strain: Ca77 (lactose-deleted, B1-, Hfr)
  • β-galactosidase assay
  • ONPG uptake assay
  • Thiomethylgalactoside (TMG) transport assay
  • P1 Transduction
