Description Vibrio cholerae mutants sensitive to 2-aminopurine (2AP) but with DNA adenine
methylase activity similar to parental cells have been isolated, The mutant
strains were sensitive to ultraviolet light (UV), methyl methane sulphonate (MMS)
and 9-aminoacridine. The spontaneous mutation frequency of the mutants were
not significantly affected, Attempts to isolate dam- V, cholerae cells by screening
2AP sensitive cells have not been successful, All the mutant phenotypes
could be suppressed by introducing the plasmid pRB103 carrying the dam gene
of Escherichia coli into the mutant cells.
