Abstract excerpt
The Escherichia coli nusA gene product, known to influence transcription elongation, is essential for both bacterial viability and growth of lambdoid phages. We report the cloning and sequencing of the conditionally lethal nusA10(Cs) allele. Changes from nusA+ were observed at nucleotides 311 and 634. Functional studies showed that both nucleotide changes are necessary for the cold-sensitive phenotype, although...
