von Wilcken-Bergmann, B, Koenen, M, Griesser, HW and Müller-Hill, B (1983) 72 residues of gal repressor fused to beta-galactosidase repress the gal operon of E. coli. EMBO J. 2:1271-4

Abstract

An active gene has been constructed which produces a chimera consisting of the N-terminal domain of the gal repressor and all but the first five residues of beta-galactosidase. Seventy two residues of gal repressor fused to beta-galactosidase as tetrameric core are sufficient to repress the gal operon in vivo and to bind to the gal operator in vitro.
