The replication pattern of the plasmid pBR322 was examined in the dnaA mutants of Escherichia coli. The rate of pBR322 DNA synthesis is markedly decreased after dnaA cells are shifted to the restrictive temperature of 42 degrees C. However, addition of rifampicin (RIF) to cultures of dnaA strains in
Replication of mini-plasmids derived from bacteriophage P1 and naturally existing plasmids F, R1, R6K and RK2 in otherwise isogenic relA+ and reLk Escherichia coli strains during amino acid starvation and limitation was investigated. Since it was previously demonstrated that inhibition of DNA synthe
