Abstract excerpt
The termination of transcription in Escherichia coli by action of Rho factor is dependent on the ability of this homohexameric protein to make productive interactions with the nascent RNA molecule to be terminated. The roles of two residues in a phylogenetically conserved sequence motif in the RN...
