A novel type of rho mutants, rhos, with increased transcription termination activities have been isolated. A termination defective rho mutation rho-ts702 (formerly designated nitA702), which causes temperature-sensitive cell growth, was found to be dominant over the wild-type allele in relieving mut

Taking advantage of the Spi (sensitivity to P2 interference) phenomenon, bacterial mutants seemingly resistant to phage lambdasusNnin5, but sensitive to phage lambdaspi, were isolated from a strain of E. coli K12 carrying no nonsense suppressor and lysogenic for P2. A class of these mutants, designa
Initiation of DNA replication from the Escherichia coli origin, oriC, is dependent on an RNA polymerase-mediated transcription event. The function of this RNA synthetic event in initiation, however, remains obscure. Since control of the synthesis of this RNA could serve a key role in the overall ini
Synthesis of RNA polymerase subunits and of transcription termination factor p was studied after thermoinduction of prophage lambdac1857 located at several unusual sites on the chromosome of Escherichia coli. When a lysogen carrying the prophage at the bfe gene was induced at 42 degrees C, the rate
