The genes xthA, pncA, and pabB were ordered relative to others by two- and three-factor transductional crosses with bacteriophage P1. The genes studied span 2 min (2%) of the genetic map of Escherichia coli K-12 in the clockwise sequence pheS-pfkB-xthA-pncA-gap-pabB-fadD. Eleven independently derived xth mutations were examined; all were known to affect exonuclease III and its associated endonuclease II activity, and all were mapped in the xthA region. pncA mutations were found to confer resistance to 6-aminonicotinamide, whereas some pheS mutations are known to specify resistance to p-fluorphenylalanine. xth mutations were readily transferred into other strains by selecting for these co-transducible drug resistance markers.
通过用噬菌体P1进行两因子和三因子转导杂交,确定了xthA、pncA和pabB基因相对于其他基因的顺序。所研究的基因按顺时针顺序pheS-pfkB-xthA-pncA-gap-pabB-fadD跨越大肠杆菌K-12遗传图谱的2分钟(2%)。检查了11个独立获得的xth突变;所有这些突变都已知会影响核酸外切酶III及其相关的核酸内切酶II活性,并且所有突变都定位在xthA区域。发现pncA突变赋予对6-氨基烟酰胺的抗性,而一些pheS突变已知赋予对对氟苯丙氨酸的抗性。通过选择这些共转导的耐药标记,xth突变很容易转移到其他菌株中。
