Abstract excerpt
Plasmids carrying two IS30 elements in the same orientation, as in the composite transposon Tn2706, are structurally unstable in Escherichia coli. A primary segregation product is formed by site-specific deletion of the sequences carried between the two IS30 elements. The resulting covalently closed replicon carries the two IS30 elements as tandem repeats separated by only 2 bp. This (IS30)2 structure is...
