Abstract

A putative temperature-sensitive transcription mutant described earlier (Jabbar and Jayaraman, 1976) has been genetically mapped. The locus maps at 38 min to the left of aroD. The mutation is recessive to the wild type and it affects a gene probably other than the genes coding for the alpha and beta subunits of phenylalanine tRNA synthetase and protein synthesis initiation factor IF-3 which also map in the same region.
