Abstract
Chimeric plasmids carrying EcoRI fragments of the F sex factor were used to identify proteins involved in conjugation and to assign them to tra cistrons. Most of these proteins are incorporated into the cell envelope [of Escherichia coli] and are individually regulated at the post-transcriptional level.This publication has 26 references indexed in Scilit:
