Abstract excerpt
We have previously identified a UP element in the phage lambda PL promoter, centred at position -90 from the transcription start site. Integration host factor (IHF), a heterodimeric DNA-binding and -bending protein, binds upstream of the lambda PL promoter in a region overlapping the UP element. Stimulation of transcription by IHF requires an intact alphaCTD and affects the initial binding of RNA polymerase to...
