aCultures of E. coli bacterial strains AW216 (Wt), AW221 (W12R), AW326 (K18A) and AW600 (D16A) were grown in minimal medium plus 0.2% glycerol, 0.05% acid-hydrolyzed casein, 0.01% vitamin B1 and 100 µg/ml ampicillin with (+Trp) or without (−Trp) 100 µg/ml Trp. β-gal assays were performed in three independent experiments.

bRatio of values for cultures grown with Trp (+Trp) and those grown without Trp (−Trp).
