Finos
Definition:
(n. pl.) Second best wool from Merino sheep.
Example Sentences:
(1) When orf286 and finO are linked in cis, the level of FinO expression is increased because of a rise in the cellular concentration of finO mRNA.
(2) Furthermore, the data indicate that finO sequences on the FinO- plasmid ColV2-K94 map downstream of the transfer region, within 93.6-95.3 ColV2-K94.

(5) We suggest that the levels of fertility inhibition exhibited by F-like plasmids are a function of their cellular FinO concentration.
(6) Three were complementable in trans and were named finP mutations and two were complementable at low levels (fisO) presumably because they affected the site of action of the finO gene product.
(7) DNA-DNA hybridization studies have demonstrated the physical relatedness of the fertility inhibition gene, finO, among both FinO+ and FinO- F-like conjugative plasmids, viz.
(8) The nucleotide sequence of the region downstream of transfer gene traI, including fertility inhibition gene finO, on the conjugative plasmids F and R6-5, has been determined.

The sequences in the I-D loops, except IS3, may also code for proteins that are, however, likely to be nonessential for transfer of plasmids.
(15) They are also the only ones which derepress conjugal DNA transfer of R1, probably by competing for the finO product, a molecule needed as corepressor for maximal activity.
