Abstract

F-mediated transfer replication in a thymine-requiring Hfr of Eseherichia coli containing a thermosensitive dna B gene has been investigated. Ordinarily, DNA synthesis in the Hfr accompanies chromosome transfer at the non-permissive temperature. When the donors are, however, deprived of thymine, transfer occurs without any DNA synthesis.
