Abstract excerpt
The complete nucleotide sequence of the 3475 bp plasmid pCD3.4 from Carnobacterium divergens LV13, which encodes the bacteriocin divergicin A, was determined. Nucleotide sequence, deletion and complementation analyses revealed the presence of a trans-acting replication protein, RepA, and DNA sequences involved in plasmid replication and copy-number control. The DNA region preceding the repA gene probably contains...
