title: Deletion of the penicillin-binding protein 6 gene of Escherichia coli.
abstract: A strain of Escherichia coli with a deletion of the penicillin-binding protein 6 gene (dacC) has been constructed. The properties of this strain establish that the complete lack of penicillin-binding protein 6 has no marked effect on the growth of E. coli.
