DnaG-dependent priming signals can substitute for the two essential DNA initiation signals in oriV of the broad host-range plasmid RSF1010.
Broad host-range plasmid RSF1010 contains in the oriV region two DNA initiation signals, ssiA(RSF1010) and ssiB(RSF1010), which are essential for plasmid replication. Each of ssiA and ssiB could be substituted functionally by either of the two G4-type (DnaG-dependent) priming signals, the oric of bacteriophage G4 and an ssi signal from plasmid pSY343 (an R1 plasmid derivative). Functions of the...
متن کاملFunctional difference between the two oppositely oriented priming signals essential for the initiation of the broad host-range plasmid RSF1010 DNA replication.
The broad host-range plasmid RSF1010 contains two oppositely oriented priming signals, ssiA and ssiB, for DNA synthesis dependent on the origin of vegetative DNA replication (oriV). If either ssiA or ssiB was deleted or inverted, the RSF1010 miniplasmids containing engineered oriVs were maintained at low copy numbers, replicated abnormally as dimers, and accumulated specific single strands in t...
متن کاملFunctional organization of MobB, a small protein required for efficient conjugal transfer of plasmid R1162.
MobB is a small (molecular weight = 15,097) protein encoded by the broad-host-range plasmid R1162 and is required for its efficient transfer by conjugation. The C-terminal half of the protein contains a membrane domain essential for transfer. This region can be replaced by a putative membrane domain from another, unrelated protein, and thus is likely to function independently from the rest of M...
متن کاملA type IV-secretion-like system is required for conjugative DNA transport of broad-host-range plasmid pIP501 in gram-positive bacteria.
Plasmid pIP501 has a very broad host range for conjugative transfer among a wide variety of gram-positive bacteria and gram-negative Escherichia coli. Functionality of the pIP501 transfer (tra) genes in E. coli was proven by pIP501 retrotransfer to Enterococcus faecalis (B. Kurenbach, C. Bohn, J. Prabhu, M. Abudukerim, U. Szewzyk, and E. Grohmann, Plasmid 50:86-93, 2003). The 15 pIP501 tra gene...
متن کاملLeading strand synthesis of R1 plasmid replication in vitro is primed by primase alone at a specific site downstream of oriR.
By using an in vitro system for R1 plasmid replication dependent on a plasmid-encoded repA protein and host dnaA protein, 5' ends of the nascent leading strand were located at positions 1986-1992, some 380 base pair downstream of oriR. Analyses of early replication intermediates generated in vitro in the presence of dideoxy TTP also indicated that replication initiates about 400 base pair downs...
