Abstrakt: Previous isolation and analysis of E. coliRNA polymerase (EC 2.7.7.6) binding sites on λ DNA had demonstrated the existence of a sigma-dependent process of recognition of A-T-rich DNA sequences. We have now extended this finding to T5 and T7 DNA and häve provided evidence for the double-strandedness of the isolated binding sites. The possible equation of these sites to the genetically defined promoters is discussed.
