Transcriptional antitermination integrates the expression of loci of diverse phage origin in the chimeric Bartonella Gene Transfer Agent BaGTA
This manuscript describes an important finding of the transcriptional control of a chimeric gene transfer agents (GTA) cluster in Bartonella by a processive anti-termination factor (BrrG). The ...
