Twelve 43-base-pair repeats map in a cis-acting region essential for partition of plasmid mini-F
Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of the DNA region involved in partitioning of plasmid mini-F has been determined. The sequence consists of 12 direct tandemly arranged repeats of 43 base pairs (the two flanking repeats, 43 plus 1 base pairs) with extensive homology to each other. Each repeat contains an additional inverted repeat of 7 base pairs.
