A "retrocidal" plasmid in Enterococcus faecalis: passage and protection.

Plasmid - 1 May 2008

Flannagan Susan E, Clewell Don B, Sedgley Christine M

Abstract excerpt

Enterococcus faecalis MC4 harbors a 130 kb conjugative, pheromone (cCF10)-responding plasmid, pAMS1, conferring chloramphenicol, streptomycin and tetracycline resistances. A plasmid-borne class IIa bacteriocin (MC4-1) determinant and cognate immunity gene were present, but not expressed in MC4. However, pAMS1 transfer to E. faecalis JH2-2 (but not to the non-isogenic OG1SS) generated the surprising ability to...
