High-frequency spontaneous mutation in the bacterio-opsin gene in Halobacterium halobium is mediated by transposable elements.
We have recently characterized a transposable element, ISH1, which inactivates the bacterio-opsin (BO) gene in two purple membrane-deficient (Pum-) mutants of Halobacterium halobium. Examination of nine additional Pum- mutants now shows that in all of these the BO gene has been inactivated by insert...
