A restriction endonuclease map of EcoRI fragment f6 of F sex factor DNA was constructed and aligned with pre-existing physical and genetic maps. Results of genetic complementation tests and analysis of proteins synthesized in minicells from PstI and BglII sub-fragment clones, or from a specific BglI

A technique has been developed which allows the isolation of random deletions extending from unique restriction enzyme sites in plasmid DNA molecules. The method involves transformation of E. coli cells with linear plasmid DNAs generated by restriction enzyme cleavage. We have used this technique to
We present evidence that the Escherichia coli DNA binding protein, IHF, plays an important role in conjugal transfer of the plasmid F. Our results suggest that IHF exerts this effect by positively effecting transcription of the transfer (tra) operon of the plasmid.
