✦ Synopsis

The plasmid pIP231, determining tetracycline resistance and hydrogen sulfide production is shown to belong to incompatibility group Y and to code for a restriction and modification system. Unlike the IncY plasmids, P7 and P15B, plasmid pIP231 shows only little genetic and physical homology with P1 prophage.

Tetracycline resistance and hydrogen sulfide production have been previously found to be plasmid-mediated in a naturally-occurring strain of Escherichia coli; both functions are specified by a single conjugative plasmid called pIP231(Te-H2S); pIP231DNA was isolated as covalently closed molecules in
