Abstract excerpt
It has been established that the plasmid encoding the N-terminal domain of RecA protein (50 amino acids residues) disturbs SOS functions of htpR- mutants of E. coli. This is expressed in increased UV-sensitivity of strains and in the poor transcription of the aminoglycosidephosphoransferase gene in the hybrid operon recA APT. The discovered effect is due to an increase in the stability of the peptide whose...
