Abstract excerpt
A region of the IncHI2 plasmid R478, encoding the phenotypes of tellurite resistance (Ter), phage inhibition (Phi), and colicin resistance (PacB), was cloned and sequenced. Analysis indicated seven open reading frames (ORFs), whose genes were designated terZ, -A, -B, -C, -D, -E, and -F. Five of t...
