title: Apparent alteration in properties of arl mutants of Escherichia coli.
abstract: The published properties of lambda phages grown in Escherichia coli arl mutants, and plasmids maintained in them, included increased homologous recombination, decreased DNA-cytosine methylation, and increased sensitivity of DNA to nuclease S1. Some of these properties now appear altered; others remain approximately as published.
