The P2 phage old gene: sequence, transcription and translational control (1989)
Haggard-Ljungquist, Elisabeth, Barreiro, Virginia, Calendar, Richard, Kurnit, David M., Hans Cheng,
The old (overcoming lysogenization defect) gene product of bacteriophage P2 kills Escherichia coli recB and recC mutants and interferes with phage [lambda] growth [ Sironi et al., Virology 46 (1971)...
Liu, Leroy F., Davis, John L., Calendar, Richard
DNA molecules isolated from bacteriophage P4 are mostly linear with cohesive ends capable of forming cicular and concatemeric structures. In contrast, almost all DNA molecules isolated from P4...
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Dept. of Biochemistry, Stanford University, 1967.
Joo, Daniel M., Ng, Norman, Calendar, Richard
σ32, the product of the rpoH gene in Escherichia coli, provides promoter specificity by interacting with core RNAP. Amino acid sequence alignment of σ32 with other sigma factors in the σ70 family...
Joo, Daniel M., Nolte, Audrey, Calendar, Richard, Zhou, Yan Ning, Jin, Ding Jun
We have analyzed the core RNA polymerase (RNAP) binding activity of the purified products of nine defective alleles of the rpoH gene, which encodes ς32 in Escherichia coli. All mutations studied...
A Complex Control System for Transcriptional Activation from the sid Promoter of Bacteriophage P4
Reiter, Kaye, Lam, Hugh, Young, Edward, Julien, Bryan, Calendar, Richard
The sid gene promoter (Psid), which controls expression of the late genes from satellite phage P4, is activated by a unique class of small DNA-binding proteins. The activators from both satellite and...
Winslow, Robert H., Julien, Bryan, Calendar, Richard, Christie, Gail E.
The Serratia marcescens extracellular nuclease gene, nucA, is positively regulated by the product of the nucC gene. In this study, the upstream region required for NucC-dependent nuclease expression...

Two site-specific shuttle integration vectors were developed with two different chromosomal bacteriophage integration sites to facilitate strain construction in Listeria monocytogenes. The first...
Identification of Upstream Sequences Essential for Activation of a Bacteriophage P2 Late Promoter
Christie, Gail E., Anders, Douglas L., McAlister, Victor, Goodwin, Tina S., Julien, Bryan, Calendar, Richard
We have carried out a mutational scan of the upstream region of the bacteriophage P2 FETUD late operon promoter, PF, which spans an element of hyphenated dyad symmetry that is conserved among all six...
Bacteriophage Lambda; Abortive Infection of Bacteria Lysogenic for Phage P2*
Lindahl, Gunnar, Sironi, Gianpiero, Bialy, Harvey, Calendar, Richard
The efficiency of plating of wild-type λ on a host lysogenic for P2 is less than 10-6, and only a small number of infected cells produce progeny phage. Lambda can adsorb and inject its DNA normally...
In Vitro Packaging of Satellite Phage P4 DNA
Pruss, Gail, Goldstein, Richard N., Calendar, Richard
Satellite phage P4 directs the capsid proteins of its helper phage, P2, to form a head which is only one-third the size of the normal P2 head. The P2 head contains a genome of molecular weight 22 ×...
A Transcribing Activity Induced by Satellite Phage P4
Barrett, Kathleen J., Gibbs, Warren, Calendar, Richard
Satellite bacteriophage P4 induces a new transcribing enzyme that synthesizes polyriboguanylic acid in the presence of the poly(dG)·poly(dC) homopolymer pair. This transcribing activity was...
P2 Growth Restriction on an rpoC Mutant Is Suppressed by Alleles of the Rz1 Homolog lysC
Markov, Dmitry, Christie, Gail E., Sauer, Brian, Calendar, Richard, Park, Taehyun, Young, Ry, ...
Escherichia coli strain 397c carries a temperature-sensitive mutation, rpoC397, that removes the last 50 amino acids of the RNA polymerase β′ subunit and is nonpermissive for plating of...
