Plasmid Analysis

2003
Bacterial plasmids are extra-chromosomal, covalently-closed circular (CCC) molecules of DNA that are capable of autonomous replication (1). Plasmids may contain genes for a variety of phenotypic traits, such as antibiotic resistance, virulence, or metabolic activities, although some plasmids comprise genes conferring no detectable phenotype and are ...

Plasmids in Listeria

Plasmid, 1982
Abstract Thirty-two Listeria strains, including L. monocytogenes of the different Seeliger serovars, L. grayi and L. murrayi, have been analyzed for the presence of plasmids. A cryptic plasmid of 38.5 Md was found in seven strains: in four L. monocytogenes (serovars 1 2 c , 4b, 4d, and Ivanov 1), and in both the L.

Plasmid Copy Number and Plasmid Stability

2003
Many expression systems in research and industry use plasmids as vectors for the production of recombinant proteins or non-proteinous recombinant substances. Plasmids have an essential impact on productivity. Related factors are plasmid copy number, structural plasmid stability and segregational plasmid stability.

Plasmids in Lactobacillus

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 1997
This review describes Lactobacillus plasmids on distribution, structure, function, vector construction, vector stability, application, and prospective. About 38% of species of the genus Lactobacillus were found to contain plasmids with different sizes (from 1.2 to 150 kb) and varied numbers (1 or more). Some Lactobacillus plasmids with small sizes were

On plasmid incompatibility

Plasmid, 1978
Abstract In this paper is presented a brief review of the current state of information on plasmid incompatibility followed by a detailed mathematical model dealing with incompatibility between autonomous homogenic plasmids and based on the assumption that the intracellular plasmid copy pool is randomized with respect to assortment during cell ...

Plasmids as Organisms

1985
It is a quarter century since the publications of evidence for the transmissibility of drug resistance among Enterobacteria (1,48). Although it was not the beginning of plasmid research, it was that discovery that led to the great expansion of work on plasmids, their natural history, and the uses to which they can be put. By their practical importance,

Degradative Plasmids

1983
This chapter describes the degradative plasmids. Microorganisms play a major role in the degradation of the products and by-products of the activities of animals and plants and other microorganisms. The failure of microorganisms to rapidly recycle any of these compounds results in their accumulation in the environment and can lead to the phenomenon of ...
