Abstract

We report the effects in vivo of four segments of coliphage T7 DNA upon expression, from an upstream promoter, of galK in plasmids of the pKO family. Three of the segments carry the known major or putative distal terminators of host-dependent T7 early transcription. The fourth carries a novel terminator and maps in the late region of T7. We report the efficiencies of termination in these regions: evidence, based on studies with the E. coli nusA1 mutation, for an involvement of the transcription factor NusA in events at the major early and novel terminators: and the nature of the latter transcription signal.
