Escherichia coli mutants defective in the stable maintenance of plasmid pSC101 have been isolated following Tn10 insertion mutagenesis. One class of mutations affecting pSC101 replication was located in the genes himA and himD (hip), which encode the two subunits of integration host factor (IHF), a small histonelike DNA-binding protein that has multiple cellular functions. Mutants of pSC101 that could replicate in the absence of IHF were isolated and characterized; four independent mutational alterations were found to affect the third codon of the pSC101 rep gene, resulting in the replacement of glutamic acid by lysine. The compensating alteration appears to function by altering the activity of the pSC101 rep protein in him mutants.
