A role for the Clp protease in activating Mu-mediated DNA rearrangements.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 May 1993

Shapiro J A

Abstract excerpt

Bacteriophage Mu, one of the best-characterized mobile genetic elements, can be used effectively to answer fundamental questions about the regulation of biochemical machinery for DNA rearrangement. Previous studies of Mu virulence have implicated the Clp protease in repressor inactivation (V. Geu...
