Abstract excerpt

The letA (ccdA) and letD (ccdB) genes of the F plasmid, located just outside the sequence essential for replication, contribute to stable maintenance of the plasmid in Escherichia coli cells. The letD gene product acts to inhibit partitioning of chromosomal DNA and cell division by inhibiting DNA...
