Evidence that mutations in the suA polarity suppressing gene directly affect termination factor rho

Effect of mutations in the RNA polymeras

We analysed the effects on the expression of the gal operon of six phenotypically different mutations in the Escherichia coli RNA polymerase genes in combination with wild-type, rho, and mutant, rho15, alleles of the gene for the transcription termination factor. RNA polymerase mutations can enhance
