| Abstract |
Escherichia coli cells bearing certain mutations in rpsD (coding for the 30S ribosomal protein S4) show a ribosomal ambiguity (Ram) phenotype characterized by increased translational error rates. Here we show that spontaneous mutagenesis increases in Ram cells bearing the rpsD14 allele, suggesting that the recently described translational stress-induced mutagenesis pathway is activated in Ram cells. |
