title: Phage Mu-1 mediated transposition: a tool to study the organization of ribosomal protein genes in Escherichia coli.
abstract: Phage Mu-1 mediated transposition has been used to map genes coding for ribosomal proteins and elongation factor G inside transcriptional units. The data indicate that 1) the str A and fusA genes belong to the same operon, 2) the spcA and strA genes are expressed independently, 3) the spcA gene is located in a different transcriptional unit to that of the eryA and eryB genes.
