Characterization of a late promoter from the Streptomyces temperate phage phi C31. |
|
| Authors: | C W Howe and M C Smith |
| Abstract: | An operon expressed late in the lytic cycle of the Streptomyces temperate phage phi C31 was shown to be transcribed from an inducible promoter, phi lp (phage late promoter), which resembled the previously reported early promoters. mRNAs initiated at phi lp were processed at the 3' end (and possibly also the 5' end) of a tRNA(Thr)-like sequence, resulting in leaderless polycistronic mRNAs. |
