Abstract excerpt
In an attempt to increase our understanding of the mechanisms of conjugal transposition among gram-positive bacteria, we analyzed the genetic and structural properties of a 1.2-kb DNA fragment at the left end of the streptococcal conjugative transposon Tn5252. The sequence data revealed four short open reading frames. Polypeptides likely to correspond to two of these genes were identified. Transcriptional start...
