Sequence of the lacI gene.
The structural gene for the lac repressor of Escherichia coli, the lacI gene has been sequenced. This 1,080 base pair region of the E. coli chromosome codes for the lac repressor protein of 360 amino acids. The DNA sequence largely confirms but extends the previously reported protein sequence and allows a structural analysis of genetic phenomena.
