Title: Plasmids supplying the Q-qut-controlled gam function permit growth of lambda red- gam- (Fec-) bacteriophages on recA- hosts. Author: Crouse GF. Journal: Gene; 1985; 40(1):151-5. PubMed ID: 3005123. Abstract: A plasmid, pgam, has been constructed which expresses the phage lambda gene, gam, under the control of the lambda late promoter, p'R, contained in a form of a p'R-qut-t'R1 module. Lambda red- gam-, which normally do not grow on recA- hosts, are able to grow on recA- hosts containing pgam, because their Q function can turn on the gam gene expression. This facilitates cloning with lambda red- gam- vectors in recA- hosts.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
