The Escherichia coli strain JM105 contains partial supE activity.
The Escherichia coli JM105 strain was constructed as a sup0 strain to facilitate the cloning of selected recombinants (Yanisch-Perron et al., 1985). In our work with bacteriophage T4, we observed that several T4 am mutants could grow on JM105. To characterize the suppressor activity of JM105, we tested the growth of several T4 am mutants on a variety of E. coli suppressor-containing strains.
