Abstract excerpt
Two Escherichia coli genes, expressed from multicopy plasmids, are shown to cause partial induction of prophage lambda in recA mutant lysogens. One is rcsA, which specifies a positive transcriptional regulator of the cps genes, which are involved in capsular polysaccharide synthesis. The other is...
