Actinomycin Resistance and Actinomycin Excretion in a Mutant of Escherichia coli

Mary Jane Voll a,1, Loretta Leive a
PMCID: PMC247595  PMID: 4986766

Abstract

A mutant of Escherichia coli resembles its parent in taking up actinomycin after treatment with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid but differs in that it survives this uptake and excretes actinomycin at an increased rate.
