Abstract excerpt
An 11-kbp multicopy plasmid, pSN22, was isolated from Streptomyces nigrifaciens SN22. pSN22 is self-transmissible (conjugative), is maintained stably in S. lividans, and forms pocks in a wide range of Streptomyces strains. Mutational analyses showed that a fragment of pSN22 contained five genes involved in plasmid transfer and pock formation. traB was essential for plasmid transfer. traA was required for pock...
