Abstract

A new Escherichia coli deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) ligase mutant has been identified among a collection of temperature-sensitive DNA replication mutants isolated recently (Sevastopoulos, Wehr, and Glaser, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 74:3485-3489, 1977). At the nonpermissive temperature DNA synthesis in the mutant stops rapidly, the DNA is degraded to acid-soluble material, and cell death ensures. This suggests that the mutant may be among the most ligase-deficient strains yet characterized.
