title: Interaction of the LexA repressor and the uvrC regulatory region.
abstract: We have studied the in vitro interaction of the LexA repressor protein and the uvrC regulatory region. We find that there is specific binding to two regions, the region we have defined as lexA1 and the lexA2-lexA3 region. Our findings support the possibility of an inducible regulation for this complex operon.
