Location of the Escherichia coli K-12 ruv gene affecting septum formation after inhibition of deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis.
Escherichia coli ruv gene was located at 36.1 min on the chromosome by P1 transduction experiments and the gene order his - supD - uvrC, dar4 - ruv - eda - fadD - pps was proposed. Complementation analysis by an F' factor carrying genes in the his region indicated that ultraviolet light sensitivity genes, ruv and uvrC, consist of different cistrons and wild-type alleles of these genes are dominant over the mutant alleles.
