Abstract excerpt
The functionally active transcription termination factor rho is necessary for the T-even phages development. The inactivation of the factor by thermosensitive E. coli gene rho mutations results in blocking phage development. It should be noted that phages T2 and T4 require different levels of this factor's activity. The synthesis of some early proteins diminishes during factor rho inactivation and a number of...
