Conditionally lethal genes in the N pilus region of plasmid pCU1.

Plasmid - 1 Jul 1999

Holcík M, Rodríguez M, Couse A, Cherton-Horvat G, Iyer V N

Abstract excerpt

Plasmid genes or regions that are conditionally lethal to Escherichia coli have been called kil and those lethal to Klebsiella but not to E. coli have been called kik. Both classes of genes are found in or close to the N pilus region of the plasmid pCU1 and the closely related plasmid pKM101. Here we describe two new and overlapping lethal genes that are located between kikA and traA of the plasmid pCU1 and...
