A gene involved in lysine excretion in Escherichia coli K12

Summary One of our laboratory strains of Escherichia coli K12 carries an allele, lysX , which permits the excretion of lysine. Other strains do not carry this allele. The lysX gene maps on the side of argA distal to thyA , at about 53·5 minutes. In partial diploids the lysX allele is recessive to th...

Zusammenfassung:	Summary One of our laboratory strains of Escherichia coli K12 carries an allele, lysX , which permits the excretion of lysine. Other strains do not carry this allele. The lysX gene maps on the side of argA distal to thyA , at about 53·5 minutes. In partial diploids the lysX allele is recessive to the lysX + (non-excretor) allele.
