Direct participation of lexA protein in repression of colicin E1 synthesis
Abstract
Spontaneous colicin E1 production by plasmid RSF2124 in a recA lexA(spr) strain of Escherichia coli was about 10-fold greater than that observed in a wild-type strain. The synthesis was repressed nearly to the level of a recA strain in the presence of the plasmid pMCR551, which carries the lexA gene.
