摘要:The transducing phage {lambda}h80dlac carries the lac operator, whereas wild-type {lambda}h80 does not. We find that in high salt (0.18 M KCl), ultraviolet radiation causes the formation of a very stable complex between repressor and 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)-substituted {lambda}h80dlac but not to BrdU-{lambda}h80 DNA. Studies with inducers of the lac operon confirm the specificity of attachment. In low slat (0.01 M KCl), ultraviolet radiation will also attach repressor nonspecifically to BrdU-{lambda}h80 DNA. The stability of the complex suggests that covalent bonds are formed. We also report that another regulatory protein, the catabolite gene activator protein, can be attached similarly to DNA.
