"Cold-sensitive" mutants of the Lac repressor.

Andrew Barker1, Stefan Oehler, Benno Müller-Hill.   

Abstract

Thirteen of more than 4,000 single-amino-acid-replacement mutants of the Lac repressor, generated by suppression of amber nonsense mutants, were characterized as having a cold-sensitive phenotype. However, when expressed as missense mutations, none of the replacements cause cold sensitivity, implicating the suppression mechanism as being responsible for this phenotype.
