โœฆ Synopsis


Restriction fragments containing either leut (a rho-independent transcription termination site) and/or leut' (a rho-dependent transcription termination site) were cloned into plasmid pOL4. Treatment of plasmid-containing Escherichia coli strains with coumermycin resulted in loss of in vivo plasmid superhelicity 10 min after antibiotic addition. Galactokinase levels specified by these plasmid-containing strains were the same regardless of whether functional DNA gyrase was present. These results suggest that transcription termination is unaffected by the superhelical state of DNA.

We report the effects in vivo of four segments of coliphage T7 DNA upon expression, from an upstream promoter, of galK in plasmids of the pKO family. Three of the segments carry the known major or putative distal terminators of host-dependent T7 early transcription. The fourth carries a novel termin

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
