Overproduction of Escherichia coli integration host factor, a protein with nonidentical subunits.

abstract：:From citrate-utilizing (Cit+) Escherichia coli strain C53 of bovine origin, strains C53A and C53B were obtained. Upon mating with recA+ but not with recA mutant recipients of K-12, C53A produced chromosomal recombinants at quite high frequencies, leading to the following conclusions: (i) C53A is an Hfr strain; (ii) th...
