Abstract

A system for estimation and comparison of the regulatory ability of L10 ribosomal proteins was elaborated. pAZ102 plasmid, carrying the reporter rplJ'-lacZ gene was cointroduced into Echerichia coli cells together with the L10-producing plasmids. The regulatory ability of the assayed L10 proteins was estimated by their efficient inhibition of expression of the reporter gene
