A dnaW mutant, isolated on the basis of inability to effect conjugal DNA transfer at high temperature, has been shown by complementation and enzyme assay to be defective in the adk (adenylate kinase; EC 2.7.4.3) locus. The adk mutant, known to have reduced ATP concentration at the nonpermissive temperature (Cousin and Belaich 1966), was used to demonstrate a donor energy requirement for stable aggregate formation and for chromosome transfer in conjugation.
一个基于在高温下无法进行接合性DNA转移而分离出的dnaW突变体，通过互补和酶测定已表明在adk（腺苷酸激酶；EC 2.7.4.3）位点存在缺陷。已知该adk突变体在非允许温度下ATP浓度降低（Cousin和Belaich，1966），被用于证明供体能量对于稳定聚集体形成和接合中染色体转移的需求。
