Abstract
Four genes of Escherichia coli whose products are needed to reduce biotin-d-sulfoxide to biotin have been mapped: bisA next to chlA, bisB next to chlE, bisC linked to xyl, and bisD next to chlG. A defective λ transducing phage, λdbis5, which carries all the bacterial genes between the λ attachment site and chlE, was isolated and shown to have lost the phage genes from int through Q.
