Abstract excerpt
A limited number of deletion/insertions and a point mutation in the -35 region of the p'R promoter of phage lambda were examined and found to influence both transcription and its repression by the integration host factor (IHF). Positive effects on transcription (in the absence of IHF) are small (up to 1.4-fold) and are caused by a deletion-substitution upstream of the -35/ihf site. Up to three base changes in the...
