An Invertron-Like Linear Plasmid Mediates Intracellular Survival and Virulence in Bovine Isolates of Rhodococcus equi.
We report a novel host-associated virulence plasmid in Rhodococcus equi, pVAPN, carried by bovine isolates of this facultative intracellular pathogenic actinomycete. Surprisingly, pVAPN is a 120-kb invertron-like linear replicon unrelated to the circular virulence plasmids associated with equine (pVAPA) and porcine (pVAPB variant) R. equi isolates. pVAPN is similar to the linear plasmid pNSL1 f...
متن کاملLinear plasmids of Borrelia burgdorferi have a telomeric structure and sequence similar to those of a eukaryotic virus.
Spirochetes of the genus Borrelia have double-stranded linear plasmids with covalently closed ends. The physical nature of the terminal connections was determined for the 16-kb linear plasmid of the B31 strain of the Lyme disease agent Borrelia burgdorferi. Native telomeric fragments representing the left and right ends of this plasmid were isolated and subjected to Maxam-Gilbert sequence analy...
متن کاملThe circle is broken: telomere resolution in linear replicons.
Linear DNA molecules with covalently closed hairpin ends (telomeres) exist in a wide variety of organisms. Telomere resolution, a DNA breakage and reunion reaction in which replicated telomeres are processed into hairpin ends, is now known to be a common theme in poxviruses, Borrelia burgdorferi and Escherichia coli phage N15. Candidate proteins that may perform this reaction have recently been...

15 صفحه اولDiophantine Equations Related with Linear Binary Recurrences
In this paper we find all solutions of four kinds of the Diophantine equations begin{equation*} ~x^{2}pm V_{t}xy-y^{2}pm x=0text{ and}~x^{2}pm V_{t}xy-y^{2}pm y=0, end{equation*}% for an odd number $t$, and, begin{equation*} ~x^{2}pm V_{t}xy+y^{2}-x=0text{ and}text{ }x^{2}pm V_{t}xy+y^{2}-y=0, end{equation*}% for an even number $t$, where $V_{n}$ is a generalized Lucas number. This pape...
