Genetics of cosQ, the DNA-packaging termination site of phage lambda: local suppressors and methylation effects.

Genetics - 1 Sept 2003

Wieczorek Douglas J, Feiss Michael

Abstract excerpt

The cos site of the bacteriophage lambda chromosome contains the sites required for DNA processing and packaging during virion assembly. cos is composed of three subsites, cosQ, cosN, and cosB. cosQ is required for the termination of chromosome packaging. Previous studies have shown cosQ mutations to be suppressed in three ways: by a local suppressor within cosQ; by an increase in the length of the lambda...
