Translational regulatory signals within the coding region of the bacteriophage lambda cIII gene.

Abstract

Six independent mutations which enhance the lysogenic response were analyzed. The mutations cause single-base substitutions at three sites within the cIII coding sequence, one of which does not change the amino acid code. The mutations allow for elevated translation of the cIII gene, possibly via changes in the mRNA secondary structure.
