The htrM gene, whose product is essential for Escherichia coli viability only at elevated temperatures, is identical to the rfaD gene.

We have identified a new E. coli gene, htrM. The htrM gene was identified because its insertional inactivation by the Tn5 transposon results in E. coli's inability to form colonies at temperatures above 43 degrees C. The corresponding htrM+ gene was cloned on the basis of its ability to correct...
