  why thermosensitive bacteria (Ts) can not grow on a restrictive temperture and does in a permissive one?
  is it because the restrictive temperture doesn’t allow the replication od the DNA?
  Please forgive my bad english 😳 .
  thank you

  no, it’s usually because there is a mutant protein that can only fold at the permissive temperature, not at the restrictive temperature.
