The araC regulatory gene mRNA contains a leader sequence

The araC regulatory gene mRNA contains a leader sequence

L G Cass et al. Mol Gen Genet. 1980.

Abstract

An estimation of the size of the araC gene in Escherichila coli B/r was made by sub-cloning restriction fragments of the araC-containing hybrid plasmid pTB1 into the plasmid pBR322. Plasmids which contained a functional araC gene were identified by genetic complementation tests. DNA sequence analysis of the promoter-proximal region of the araC gene revealed that araC mRNA contains a 150 nucleotide leader.
