Title: [Genetic control of plasmid R6K conjugativity]. Author: Abalakina EG, Iakubov LZ, Rebentish BA, Stepanov AI. Journal: Genetika; 1981; 17(9):1555-65. PubMed ID: 6271623. Abstract: The regions determining conjugation ability of plasmid R6K were localized by means of deletion mutants obtained in vitro and in vivo and Tra- mutants induced by integration of transposons Tn5, Tn7 and Tn9 into different DNA sites of the conjugative deletion mutant pAS3. At least 13 genes were found to be involved in the genetic control of R6K conjugativity, on the basis of genetic, restriction and heteroduplex studies. They were mapped within the two DNA regions having the total molecular weight of about 10-11 md. A transposon-like structure with a replication function has been located between them.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
