Multiple defects in Escherichia coli mutants lacking HU protein.

O Huisman1, M Faelen, D Girard, A Jaffé, A Toussaint, J Rouvière-Yaniv.   

Abstract

The HU protein isolated from Escherichia coli, composed of two partially homologous subunits, alpha and beta, shares some of the properties of eucaryotic histones and is a major constituent of the bacterial nucleoid. We report here the construction of double mutants totally lacking both subunits of HU protein. These mutants exhibited poor growth and a perturbation of cell division, resulting in the formation of anucleate cells. In the absence of HU, phage Mu was unable to grow, to lysogenize, or to carry out transposition.
