| Abstract |
An msDNA operon, consisting of genes for msDNA and a reverse transcriptase, is present in Escherichia coliB and absent from E. coliK12. We have found that the msDNA operon is located on a DNA fragment, longer than 15kb, that is absent from E. coliK12. Using conjugation, P1 transduction, and nucleic acid hybridization between E. coliB and E. coliK12 strains, we have located the position of the msDNA operon on the E. coliB chromosome at a site that corresponds to minute 19 on the genetic map and to position 900 on the physical map of the E. coliK12 chromosome. |
