Abstract
LamB Encodes the .lambda. receptor of E. coli, an outer membrane protein. The beginning of the lamB gene was identified by correlating DNA nucleotide sequence with a partial sequence of the primary translation product of lamB. Phage .lambda. receptor is synthesized as a precursor containing an extra 25 amino acids at its NH2 terminus. These amino acids are predominately hydrophobic and probably comprise a structure required for initiation of transport of .lambda. receptor from the cytoplasm to the outer membrane.Keywords
