Abstract

Temperature-resistant suppressor mutants were isolated from Escherichia coli mutant strain groES131(Ts). Phage P1-mediated transduction and a two-dimensional gel electrophoretic analysis of cellular proteins indicated that these suppressor mutants carry an additional mutation in either the groEL gene or the rpoA gene.
