DNA synthesis involved in DNA replication

repEA is an important gene in DNA synthesis and phage growth of phage T4. However, due to the amalgamation of several initiation sites in the T4 genome, mutations in repEA are not lethal. Nonsense mutations of repEA in conjunction with mot4 (to reduce initiation from different sources) mutations in phages showed smaller plaques compared to phages without both of these mutations (data not shown - from "Nonsense mutations in the repEA and repEB genes in combination with a motA mutation affect phage growth.") The same repEA and mot4 mutation was shown to synthesize much less DNA compared to that of the phage with just the mot4 mutation (Figure 6), which was indicative of the importance of repEA versus other initiator proteins in DNA synthesis.
