Abstract excerpt

Basal and induced levels of recA expression in wild-type and isogenic derivatives of Escherichia coli carrying various rec mutations were measured using a low-copy number recApo-lacZ fusion, pKLC3.2. Basal recA expression in wild-type and isogenic derivatives containing single rec- mutations, as...
