  • Title: [Plasmids for naphthalene biodegradation incompatible with IncP-2 and IncP-7 group plasmids].
    Author: Kochetkov VV, Boronin AM.
    Journal: Genetika; 1985 Apr; 21(4):522-9. PubMed ID: 3924728.
    Abstract:
    Fourteen conjugative naphthalene degradative plasmids have been classified by incompatibility. It is shown that the plasmids of IncP-9 group are characterized by the minor entry exclusion, with respect to the R plasmids belonging to IncP-2 or IncP-7 groups. On the other hand, the naphthalene degradative plasmids of incompatibility group P-7 exhibit a markedly pronounced entry exclusion, with respect to the R plasmids of the same incompatibility groups. Two naphthalene degradative plasmids reveal incompatibility with the reference plasmids of two Inc groups (P-2 and P-7). These plasmids control also resistance of bacterial cells to potassium tellurite, which is characteristic of the IncP-2 plasmids. Two other naphthalene degradative plasmids are capable of stable coexistence with the IncP-2, P-7 or P-9 reference plasmids.
