Identity of a gene responsible for suppression of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase mutations with rpsT, the structural gene for ribosomal protein S20.

Sepcialized transducing lines of phage lambda carrying segments between thr and car from the E. coli chromosome have been isolated. With help of these phages it has been shown that the gene sups20 (Böck et al., 1974) corresponds to rpsT, the structural gene for ribosomal protein S20.
