Studies of colicin E1 plasmid functions by analysis of deletions and TnA insertions of the plasmid.

ABSTRACT

The further identification of regions of the colicin E1 plasmid that affect plasmid functions has been achieved by studying deletions and TnA insertions of the plasmid. Colicin production, colicin immunity, relaxation of plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid, and plasmid incompatibility functions have been examined. A strong correlation has been observed between the ability of colicin E1 plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid to be relaxed and the ability of that plasmid to be transferred by conjugation.
