Plasmid pC present in Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis PT14b strains encodes a restriction modification system.
Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) possesses plasmids of different sizes and roles. Besides the serovar-specific virulence plasmid present in most field strains, S. Enteritidis can harbour plasmids of low molecular mass whose biological role is poorly understood. We therefore sequenced plasmid pC present in S. Enteritidis strains belonging to phage type PT14b. The size of ...
متن کاملLactococcal plasmid pNP40 encodes a novel, temperature-sensitive restriction-modification system.
A novel restriction-modification system, designated LlaJI, was identified on pNP40, a naturally occurring 65-kb plasmid from Lactococcus lactis. The system comprises four adjacent similarly oriented genes that are predicted to encode two m(5)C methylases and two restriction endonucleases. The LlaJI system, when cloned into a low-copy-number vector, was shown to confer resistance against represe...
متن کاملEcoR124I: from plasmid-encoded restriction-modification system to nanodevice.
SUMMARY Plasmid R124 was first described in 1972 as being a new member of incompatibility group IncFIV, yet early physical investigations of plasmid DNA showed that this type of classification was more complex than first imagined. Throughout the history of the study of this plasmid, there have been many unexpected observations. Therefore, in this review, we describe the history of our understan...
متن کاملDNA restriction-modification systems mediate plasmid maintenance.
Two plasmid-carried restriction-modification (R-M) systems, EcoRI (from pMB1 of Escherichia coli) and Bsp6I (from pXH13 of Bacillus sp. strain RFL6), enhance plasmid segregational stability in E. coli and Bacillus subtilis, respectively. Inactivation of the endonuclease or the presence of the methylase in trans abolish the stabilizing activity of the R-M systems. We propose that R-M systems med...
متن کاملPlasmid profile analysis of a salmonellosis outbreak and identification of a restriction and modification system.
After an outbreak of salmonellosis in humans caused by Salmonella typhimurium bacteriophage type 135, 62 isolates from human, animal, and water sources were retained for further analysis. Most of the isolates (92%) could be placed in one of five plasmid pattern groups, with a majority containing a common 60-kilobase plasmid and a smaller 3.8-kilobase-pair plasmid. This small plasmid, pIMVS1, wa...
