Abstract

Cvc- mutants of Escherichia coli are deficient in the synthesis of cis-vaccenic acid and in the temperature control of fatty acid synthesis. In this communication, it is demonstrated that these mutants lack beta-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase II. The deficiencies in cis-vaccenate synthesis and synthase II are shown to be due to a lesion in the same gene, fabF. Lesions in the fabF gene are found to affect growth only when the strain also carries a lesion in the fabB gene, the structural gene for beta-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase I.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
