Abstract excerpt
Gene V protein of bacteriophage Ff (M13, f1, fd) is a master regulator of phage DNA replication and phage mRNA translation. It exerts these two functions by binding to single-stranded viral DNA or to specific sequences in the 5' ends of its target mRNAs, respectively. To study the structure/function relationship of gene V protein, M13 gene V was inserted in a phagemid expression vector and a library of missense...
