Abstract excerpt
A new chromosomal mutation (cpeA), that causes increased expression of plasmid-borne genes in Escherichia coli, was identified and mapped to the sbcB locus. The effect of the mutation on plasmid transcription was non-specific with respect to the various promoters that were studied, but was more pronounced for an IncW low-copy-number plasmid than for ColE1- or p15A-based, high-copy-number plasmids. The mutant...
