Abstract excerpt
The replication frequency of IncFII plasmids is regulated through the availability of a rate-limiting protein, RepA. The synthesis of this protein is controlled post-transcriptionally by a small antisense RNA, CopA, which binds to the leader region of the RepA mRNA (CopT). In this communication w...
