Abstract excerpt
The genes encoding SsoI and SsoII restriction endonuclease (ENase) and methyltransferase (MTase) are located on the small plasmids P6 and P4, respectively, of Shigella sonnei strain 47. Functions provided by plasmids P5, P7 and P9, which include colicinogenicity and immunity to colicin E1, resistance to streptomycin (Sm), and conjugative DNA transfer, respectively, have also been identified. The genes of the...
