Physical characterization of ilv-lac fusions.
Electron microscopic heteroduplex analysis and comparative restriction digests have been used to characterize lambda p123(209), the complementary pair of phages used in the Casadaban technique of gene fusion. Derivatives of lambda 1(209) constructed to carry fusions of the lac genes to the control regions of the ilvC and ilvEDA operons were also analyzed. These physical maps have provided confirmation of the genetic models for these constructions and physical specifications important in interpreting the behavior of these ilv-lac fusions.
