Main Points of the Paper
- Suppressors of nonsense codons exist for the regulatory i gene of the lactose operon, thereby proving that the functional i product is a protein.
- Rationale: suppression of nonsense codons into amino acids occurs at the translational level
- Specific activity of β-galactosidase in the wild type is 12; in both the suppressible (but unsuppressed) constitutives 18,000.
- values in a large number of different su+ revertants from these two constitutive strains range from 600 to 2000, indicating incomplete suppression and the existence of different suppressors.
Materials and Methods Used
Please list the materials and methods used in this paper (strains, plasmids, antibodies, etc).
- Mutagenesis of E.coli strain 112-12 (gal-, cys-, his-, su)
- Mutagen-producing agents: 2-aminopurine or N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosguanidine
- ONPG solution to select for lac constitutive mutants
