Location of the Genes Controlling Alkaline Phosphatase on the F′13 Episome of Escherichia coli

M Bracha 1, E Yagil 1
PMCID: PMC245864  PMID: 4616954

Abstract

Interrupted mating experiments between F′13 and F cells showed that the location on the F′13 episome of the genes controlling alkaline phosphatase is on the end proximal to the point of entry, in the order phoA proC phoB phoR tsx.
