We have used the sequence-specific endonucleases Eco RI, Sma I,
Bam HI, Hsu I and Hae III as identification tools in following the
conjugal transfer of the well studied R plasmids Sa, R388, RP4 and R6K.
Transfers were both intergenus and intragenus. Plasmid fingerprints
were generated from both single and...
The effect of carbon source, nitrogen source, and amino acid
starvation on the accumulation of guanosine tetraphosphate.and RNAand
protein synthesis in Rhizobium meliloti are described in this report.
An accumulation of ppGpp and a decrease in the rate of RNA and
protein synthesis were observed in response to nitrogen source...
