Abstract excerpt
The integration host factor (IHF) is a sequence-specific, histone-like, multi-functional DNA-binding and -bending protein of Escherichia coli. Characterization and functional analysis of this protein has been carried out mainly in bacteriophage lambda and other mobile genetic elements. In this paper we report data concerning the binding of IHF protein to the plasmid orip15A region. IHF binds to the single site of...
