Structure of a translocation signal domain mediating conjugative transfer by Type IV secretion systems [PDF]
, 2013 Relaxases are proteins responsible for the transfer of plasmid and chromosomal DNA from one bacterium to another during conjugation. They covalently react with a specific phosphodiester bond within DNA origin of transfer sequences, forming a nucleo ...

Modeling sRNA-regulated Plasmid Maintenance
, 2016 We study a theoretical model for the toxin-antitoxin (hok/sok) mechanism for plasmid maintenance in bacteria. Toxin-antitoxin systems enforce the maintenance of a plasmid through post-segregational killing of cells that have lost the plasmid.
