    Evidence that a nucleotide sequence, "boxA," is involved in the action of the NusA protein

    We report the isolation of a mutation, boxA 1, in the nutR region of the phage [lambda] genome. The nutR region, located downstream of the pR promoter, includes the site nutR where the [lambda] N protein is thought to act to render subsequent transcription termination-resistant. We have previously suggested that the boxA sequence, 5'CGCTCTTA3' (or its RNA analog), located 8 bp promoter-proximal to nutR, might be the recognition site for the E. coli host factor, NusA, which has been shown to be necessary for N action. The boxA1 mutation, an A:T to T:A transversion, results in a changed boxA sequence upstream of nutR, CGCTCTTT. This change is necessary for [lambda] to effectively use the NusA of Salmonella typhimurium, a NusA function not normally active with the N product of [lambda]. Other lambdoid phages with unique N functions and nut sites that are normally active with the NusA of Salmonella have boxA sequences with the terminal three Ts. Moreover, sequences closely resembling boxA have been found near transcription termination sequences in E. coli operons where NusA has been shown to be involved in termination. These findings identify boxA as an important recognition signal for the NusA protein.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/25144/1/0000580.pd

    Analysis of nutR: A region of phage lambda required for antitermination of transcription

    The N gene product of coliphage lambda acts with host factors (Nus) through sites (nut) to render subsequent downstream transcription resistant to a variety of termination signals. These sites, nutR and nutL, are downstream, respectively, from the early promoters PR and PL. Thus a complicated set of molecular interactions are likely to occur at the nut sites. We have selected mutations in the nutR region that reduce the effectiveness of pN in altering transcription initiating at the PR promoter. DNA sequence analysis of three independently selected mutations revealed, in each case, a deletion of a single base pair in the cro gene. Consideration of the effect of such mutations on the extension of translation of cro message into the adjacent downstream nut region led to the identification of a consensus sequence CGCTCT(T)TAA that appears to play a role in the recognition of a host factor, possibly the NusA protein.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/23813/1/0000052.pd

    Državljani, bralci in pokrivanje britanskih splošnih volitev 2005 v lokalnih časopisih

    Članek proučuje, kako so se novinarji v pokrivanju splošnih britanskih volitev leta 2005 lotili ne le njihovega povezovanja s političnem življenjem "navadnih" državljanov, ampak iskanja aktivne vloge zanje v novičarskem prostoru. Velik upad volilne udeležbe je dal novičarskim organizacijam misliti o stilu in naravi političnih programov in publikacij, ki so jih novinarji, politične elite in raziskovalci kritizirali, da ne informirajo in ne angažirajo bralcev, poslušalcev in gledalcev. Novinarska ocena pokrivanja volitev leta 2005 je, da so novičarske organizacije v večji meri zadovoljile potrebe "povprečnega državljana"po mnenju uglednega novinarja je celo "približevanje realnim ljudem ušlo iz rok". Članek sistematično obravnava vlogo, ki so jo državljani imeli v teh volitvah v regionalnih in lokalnih časopisih. Izsledki problematizirajo uspešnost regionalnega in lokalnega tiska pri vključevanju državljanov, ki so jo ugotavljali mnogi britanski novinarji po volitvah. Avtorji zaključujejo, da bo treba poti, kako "priti bliže realnim ljudem", kljub drugačnemu prepričanju šele poiskati.In this article we examine how, in newspaper coverage of the 2005 general election, journalists set out not only to connect with the political lives of "ordinary" citizens but to find an active role for them to play in news space.In recent years, the sharp drop in electoral turnout has made many news organisations rethink the style and nature of political programming and publications, having come under considerable attack - from journalists, political elites and scholars - for not informing and engaging readers, listeners and viewers. Journalistic assessments of media coverage of the 2005 general election suggested that news organisations improved the way they engaged the needs of the "average citizen." Even to the extent where, according to one senior journalist, "getting closer to the real people got outof hand." We enter this debate by looking systematically at the role citizens played in the 2005 general election in regional and local newspapers\u27coverage. We examined every kind of source in election coverage - from police, politicians and pressure groups to citizens, business leaders andacademics. Overall, we question the success of the regional and local pressin achieving the type and level of engagement implied by many of the UK\u27smost distinguished journalists in post-election analysis.

    In this article we examine how, in newspaper coverage of the 2005 general election, journalists set out not only to connect with the political lives of “ordinary” citizens but to fi nd an active role for them to play in news space. In recent years, the sharp drop in electoral turnout has made many news organisations rethink the style and nature of political programming and publications, having come under considerable attack – from journalists, political elites and scholars – for not informing and engaging readers, listeners and viewers.
