Mutagenesis of dimeric plasmids by the transposon gamma delta (Tn1000).

Journal of bacteriology - 1 May 1990

Liu L, Berg C M

Abstract excerpt

The Escherichia coli F factor mediates conjugal transfer of a plasmid such as pBR322 primarily by replicative transposition of transposon gamma delta (Tn1000) from F to that plasmid to form a cointegrate intermediate. Although resolution of this cointegrate always yields a plasmid containing a single gamma delta insertion, the occasional recovery of transposon-free plasmids after conjugal transfer has led to...
