Abstract excerpt
When two, directly-repeated copies of the origin of transfer (oriT) of the conjugatively mobilizable, broad host-range plasmid R1162 are cloned into bacteriophage M13mp9 DNA, they undergo recombination in the presence of one of the R1162-encoded proteins required for mobilization [Meyer, R. (1989) J. Bacteriol., 171, 799-806]. Mutations in the outer arm of the inverted repeat within oriT inhibit this...
