New Rifampin-Resistant Mutant of Escherichia coli

Sergio Marshall a, David Gillespie a,1
PMCID: PMC247485  PMID: 4553848

Abstract

A rifampin-resistant ribonucleic acid (RNA) polymerase mutant, rifr51, derived from a presumptive RNA synthesis mutant of Escherichia coli K-12, complements rifr RNA polymerase mutants isolated from other strains of E. coli K-12.
