Abstract

We have determined the complete nucleotide sequence of the 8.3-kb multicopy plasmid NTP16 and produced a functional map of its gene organization. Sixty percent of the plasmid DNA comprises transposon-derived sequences; in the remaining 3320 bp, we have identified three protein coding regions. NTP16 has a ColE1-type replication system, a cis-acting stability locus and a mobilization system comprising an oriT site and one mobilization protein. The roles of the other two protein products of this plasmid are unknown, but they are possibly involved in the plasmid incompatibility system.
