Abstract excerpt
Expression of the repZ gene involved in DNA replication of the ColIb-P9 plasmid depends on translation of a transcribed repZ leader sequence (repY) and is negatively regulated by Inc RNA, the product of the inc gene and a countertranscript to RepZ mRNA. To further understand the regulatory loop of repZ expression, we isolated and characterized replication-defective ColIb-P9 mutants that affected the level of repZ...
