SUMMARYEscherichia coliK-12 mutants resistant to glutamyl-γ-methyl ester were isolated. A mutation leading to resistance of up to 1·4 mg/ml of the methionine analogue maps at min 63 and is 13% cotransducible withserAindicating an alteration in themetKgene. Another mutation leading to resistance to 3 mg/ml of the analogue and cross-resistance to other amino acid analogues maps at min 87. This mutation, which has the phenotype of MetJ−, is shown to be situated between theglpKandmetBgenes and thus indicates a different gene order from the published one.

The induction of cellobiase in washed suspensions of Stachybotrys atra mycelium harvested during the active phase of growth follows the classical pattern for induced protein synthesis, except that it does not appear to be dependent on continued growth of the organism. At 28�C under aerobic conditions there is no detectable lag period. Inducers are ,B.glucosides of polyhydroxylic aglycones, which may be another sugar residue or a chain of such residues. Such inducers are metabolizable by the mould; after their breakdown the enzyme rapidly disappears from the mycelium. Interference with RNA metabolism and information transfer depresses the induced synthesis of the enzyme; two amino acid analogues, ,B-chloroalanine and p-fiuorophenylalanine, also inhibit this induction. Inhibition is also observed when respirable substances are present, and the inhibitor appears to arise from the metabolism of pyruvate.
