Regulatory mechanisms in expression of the traY-I operon of sex factor plasmid R100: involvement of traJ and traY gene products.

Genes to cells : devoted to molecular & cellular mechanisms - 1 Jun 1998

Taki K, Abo T, Ohtsubo E

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The plasmid R100 encodes tra genes essential for conjugal DNA transfer in Escherichia coli. Genetic evidence suggests that the traJ gene encodes a positive regulator for the traY-I operon, which includes almost all the tra genes located downstream of traJ. The molecular mechanism of r...
