Transcription and membrane attachment of bacteriophage lambda DNA in the absence of N function in the E. coli suA 1 mutant.
In the polarity suppressor strain psuA 1, we observe a partial N independence of both transcription and DNA-membrane attachment for a lambda NN mutant. These results, in agreement with the genetical data reported by Dambly et al. (1976), suggest that the N product and rho factor are involved in the same process but may not interact directly.
