Disease relevance of rplX

  • A temperature-sensitive mutant in the gene rplX for ribosomal protein L24 and its suppression by spontaneous mutations in a 23S rRNA gene of Escherichia coli [1].
 

High impact information on rplX

  • By transforming the rplX mutant with a plasmid carrying the rrnB operon and by selecting for temperature-resistant transformants we obtained two spontaneous suppressor mutants in the gene for 23S rRNA [1].
  • Plasmids containing genes distal to rplX could further stimulate growth, and the wild type arose when the entire spc operon and the alpha operon were present [2].
  • DNA sequence and complementation analysis of a mutation in the rplX gene from Escherichia coli leading to loss of ribosomal protein L24 [2].
 

Biological context of rplX

  • However, temperature sensitivity could not be complemented by any of the plasmids in trans, although we found that this phenotype was caused by the mutation in the rplX gene [2].
