Abstract excerpt
A series of deletion mutants of the wild-type Escherichia coli lactose promoter, with endpoints at +25, +19, +14, +1 and -6 (relative to the start of transcription at +1), was constructed and the deleted DNA replaced with non-lac DNA. These mutants were used to show that no specific DNA sequences downstream from -6 are required for efficient promoter utilization in vitro. In all cases transcription is dependent...
