Expression of the argA gene carried by a defective lambda bacteriophage of Escherichia coli

J Bacteriol. 1976 Mar;125(3):1217-9. doi: 10.1128/jb.125.3.1217-1219.1976.

Abstract

Evidence is presented that the increase in specific activity of N-acetylglutamate synthase observed upon heat induction of Escherichia coli (lambdadargA) is primarily due to a gene dosage effect.
