ColE1 plasmid mutants affecting growth of an Escherichia coli recB recC sbcB mutant.

J Inselburg
PMCID: PMC222034  PMID: 338596

Abstract

Three mutant derivatives of the plasmid ColE1 were found to reduce the formation of plasmidless cells in a recB recC sbcB cell population. An active plasmid role in the plasmid-host interaction is suggested.
