Identification of the functional initiation codons of a phase-variable gene of Haemophilus influenzae, lic2A, with the potential for differential expression.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jan 2007

Dixon Kevin, Bayliss Christopher D, Makepeace Katherine, Moxon E Richard, Hood Derek W

Abstract excerpt

Simple sequence repeats located within reading frames mediate phase-variable ON/OFF switches in gene expression by generating frameshifts. Multiple translation initiation codons in different reading frames are found upstream of most Haemophilus influenzae tetranucleotide repeat tracts, raising th...
