Histidine regulation in Salmonella typhimurium. 8. Mutations of the hisT gene
Abstract
The hisT gene, one of six genes in which mutation causes derepression of the histidine operon in Salmonella typhimurium, is shown to code for a protein that is not essential for the growth of the bacteria. This is indicated by the characterization of particular classes of mutations in the hisT gene: amber mutations, frame-shift mutations, and temperature-sensitive mutations that affect repression but not growth. In addition, the class of semilethal mutations was selected for but not found.
