Abstract excerpt
Mutations were constructed by site-directed mutagenesis in the relaxase operon of the broad-host-range plasmid RP4. The mutations were constructed in smaller plasmids, recombined into the 60-kb RP4 plasmid, and tested for their ability to transfer. The relaxase operon contains the transfer genes traJ, traH, and traI, which are involved in nicking at the transfer origin to generate the single strand destined to be...
