Abstract excerpt
A novel source of transcription has been detected in the replication region of plasmid R6K by using fusions involving the galK reporter gene. The -35 and -10 consensus RNA polymerase binding sites were identified in the region overlapping the binding sites for the R6K-encoded replication protein pi. Transcription from this promoter, designated P2, is repressed in vivo by pi-protein levels that are inhibitory for...
