Abstract excerpt
We have characterized at the molecular level several polar mutations in four different cistrons of the his operon of S. typhimurium. An analysis of the his-specific transcripts produced in vivo in the mutant strains, together with in vitro transcription assays, led to the identification of several cryptic Rho-dependent transcription termination elements within the his operon that are activated by the uncoupling...
