Cloning of bacteriophage T5 DNA fragments. III. Expression in Escherichia coli mini-cells.
Use has been made of the mini-cell system to study polypeptide synthesis from cloned EcoRI, HindIII and PstI fragments of T5 DNA. The correlation of certain gene products with known genes has been established, as well as the physical mapping of genes not yet identified genetically. In some cases, it has been possible to demonstrate the presence of T5 promoters on the cloned DNA fragments. The design of experiments to avoid certain artifacts inherent in the use of the mini-cell system is discussed.
