Site-specific recombination in gram-positive theta-replicating plasmids
FEMS Microbiol Lett.
.
Abstract
This review summarises current information on the site-specific recombinases encoded by the plasmids of the Gram-positive bacteria that have low guanine and cytosine content in their DNA. It focuses on the peculiar biological features of the recombination systems encoded by the theta-replicating plasmids and compares them with the site-specific recombinases encoded by transposons or plasmids originally isolated from Gram-negative bacteria.
