Abstract

Temperature sensitive suppression of nonsense mutations has been obtained, in E. coli, by inducing a mutation in the suppressor gene su-4, a structural gene for a tyrosine tRNA. In this mutant while no suppression is detectable at 42°C it is always present at lower temperatures. This temperature sensitivity is amenable to a reversible inactivation of the product of the su-4 gene.
