Identification of a ZP3-binding protein on acrosome-intact mouse sperm by photoaffinity crosslinking.

abstract：:A mutant of E. coli defective in DNA polymerase II activity was isolated. Extracts had about 0.1% of the normal activity of the DNA polymerase. The effect of the mutation on the ability of cells to replicate DNA of various sources was analyzed. Mutant bacteria grow normally, at 41 degrees as well as at 30 degrees . Al...
