Genetic and biochemical characterization of the DNA binding domain of Escherichia coli K-12 LexA protein.

The LexA protein of E. coli is a repressor of at least 20 genes in the SOS regulon, and by this function plays a major role in regulating the SOS response. Two different genetic approaches have been taken to define the DNA binding domain of LexA repressor. First, several mutant repressors which are...
