Structural and functional analysis of cloned DNA segments containing the replication and incompatibility regions of a miniplasmid derived from a copy number mutant of NR1

D P Taylor et al. J Bacteriol. 1979 Jan.

Abstract

A 1.45-megadalton segment of DNA cloned from a miniplasmid derived in vivo from a copy number mutant of the R plasmid NR1 has been shown to contain all functions essential for incompatibility and autonomous plasmid replication in Escherichia coli. Specific endonuclease cleavage sites within this DNA segment that localize functions required for replication have been mapped. A 0.45-megadalton fragment that specifies the FII incompatibility of NR1 has been identified within the replication region, and DNA fragments containing this incompatibility region, but lacking other functions required for replication, have been cloned.
