E protein, the 29 KdrepEgene product, is essential for the replication of theEscherichia coliF plasmid. TherepEgene has been cloned and expressed in an inducible ATG-fusion vector, and the protein product has been purified to homogeneity. The purified E protein is present as a dimer in solution and binds specifically to both the 19-bp direct repeats (incB) found within the mini-F origin of replicationori2and therepEoperator DNA. Examination of the ami no acid sequence of E protein revealed a consensus sequence for DNA binding.
