title: Temperature-sensitive mutants in cysteinyl-tRNA ligase of E. coli K-12.
abstract: Two mutants with a defective cysteinyl-tRNA synthetase have been found in a collection of spontaneous temperature sensitive mutants. The mutated gene, which is designated cysS, is closely cotransduced with purE.
