Abstract excerpt

A 37.5 kb region encompassing a set of the naphthalene degrading genes on the Pseudomonas plasmid NAH7 was found to be transposable only in the presence of the transposase encoded by the Tn1721 subgroup of the class II transposons. This newly identified mobile element, designated Tn4655, containe...
