INTERACTIONS BETWEEN COLICINOGENIC FACTOR B AND F-TYPE FACTORS: ISOLATION OF A MUTANT F-lac FACTOR INSENSITIVE TO THE EFFECT OF COLICINOGENIC FACTOR B

[摘要] An extrachromosomal factor, colicinogenic factor B (colB) inhibits expression of fertility functions of various F-type factors in strains of E. coli K12. Mutant F- lac factors simultaneously became insensitive to all the effects of colB as well as to similar actions exerted by a resistance transfer factor, R fi +. This suggests that a common site or activity necessary for the expression of several F functions is affected by products of both colB and R fi +.
