A cellular factor involved in the formation of a DNA-synthesizing complex from DNA polymerase I in Escherichia coli.
A factor ('E') has been identified which stabilizes an endogenous DNA-synthesizing complex involving DNA polymerase I. The complex is separated from free DNA polymerase by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The factor will reform the complex after it has been dissociated and will convert a preparation of DNA polymerase I to complex. The factor and the DNA-synthesizing complex both appear to be localized at the cell membrane.
