Mutants of Enterococcus faecalis deficient as recipients in mating with donors carrying pheromone-inducible plasmids.

Plasmid - 1 Jul 1990

Trotter K M, Dunny G M

Abstract excerpt

From Enterococcus faecalis cells containing random chromosomal insertions of Tn916, strains resistant to a lytic phage were selected and tested for conjugal mating ability. The phage-resistant strains all showed decreased recipient ability (Con-) in broth matings with donors carrying pheromone-inducible plasmids. These strains were normal with respect to donor ability in broth matings and recipient ability in...
