ABSTRACT A new suppressor of +1 frameshift mutations has been isolated in Salmonella typhimurium. This suppressor, sufJ, maps at minute 89 on the Salmonella genetic map between the argH and rpo(rif) loci, closely linked to the gene for the ochre suppressor tyrU(supM). The suppressor mutation is dominant to its wild-type allele, consistent with the suppressor phenotype being caused by an altered tRNA species. The sufJ map position coincides with that of a threonine tRNA(ACC/U) gene; the suppressor has been shown to read the related fourbase codons ACCU, ACCC, ACCA.—The ability of sufJ to correct one particular mutation depends on the presence of a hisT mutation which causes a defect in tRNA modification. This requirement is allele specific, since other frameshift mutations can be corrected by sufJ regardless of the state of the hisT locus.—Strains carrying both a sufJ and a hisT mutation are acutely sensitive to growth inhibition by uracil; the inhibition is reversed by arginine. This behavior is characteristic of strains with mutations affecting the arginine-uracil biosynthetic enzyme carbamyl phosphate synthetase. The combination of two mutations affecting tRNA structure may reduce expression of the structural gene for this enzyme (pyrA).
