Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis of the beta-lactamase gene, bla, on pBR322 was used to change the codon for the active-site serine 70, AGC, to CGC, coding for arginine. Escherichia coli cells carrying the mutant plasmid, pGD104, were sensitive to ampicillin, indicating that the arginine-containing enzyme is inactive. We characterized the reversion of the mutant bla gene by a number of mutagens and in different genetic backgrounds and demonstrated that full ampicillin resistance can be restored only by a G-C-to-T-A transversion occurring at the first base of the codon. Thus, reversion of the mutant bla gene is diagnostic for G-C-to-T-A transversions, and bacteria carrying pGD104 can be used as test strains to detect the occurrence of this mutation.
