Abstract
Spontaneous mutations which activate the cryptic bgl operon of Escherichia coli K12 are caused by insertion of DNA at a site, bglR, within the operon. Two insertion elements, IS1 and IS5, have been observed to effect this activation. Once the activating insertion has occurred the operon is inducible by βglucosides in a cyclic AMP-dependent manner.
