The nucleotide sequence of the kanamycin resistance determinant aphA-3 encoded by transposon Tn1545 from Streptococcus pneumoniae was determined and compared to those of plasmids pJH1 and pIP1433 from Streptococcus faecalis and Campylobacter coli, respectively. The three sequences were found to be i

Tn5405 is a 12 kb staphylococcal composite transposon delimited by two inverted copies of the insertion sequence IS1 182. This transposon carries two aminoglycosides resistance genes, aphA-3 and aadE, an altered gene similar to sat4 from Campylobacter coli BElG4, and three open reading frames of unk
## Abstract The complete nucleotide sequence of plasmid pA387 of __Amycolatopsis benzoatilytica__ DSM 43387 was determined. Sequence analysis revealed that pA387 is 30,157 bp long and has a G+C content of 71.74%. To obtain a minimal transferable replicon capable of self‐replication, a 2,176 bp frag
The DNA sequences of the mercuric resistance determinants of plasmid R100 and transposon Tn501 distal to the gene (merA) coding for mercuric reductase have been determined. These 1.4 kilobase (kb) regions show 79% identity in their nucleotide sequence, and in both sequences two common potential codi
The effects of tetracycline on transfer of the conjugative, tetracycline-resistance transposon. Tn925, as well as the ability of the transposon to promote the transfer of chromosomal genes was examined in Enterococcus faecalis and Bacillus subtilis. To test for chromosomal transfer, multiply-marked
