The naturally occurring S. cerevisiae 2µ plasmid is one of few documented cases of eukaryotic plasmids, undergoing equal distribution between mother and daughter cells during mitosis. Using Hi-C, ...

In particular, this should pertain to plasmid-encoded resistance genes encoding enzymes degrading antibiotics with an extra-cytoplasmic target (e.g. beta-lactamases). Extended spectrum beta-lactamases ...

DNA sequencing was performed by the dideoxynucleotide method at Secugen (Madrid, Spain). For the determination of the nucleotide sequence of the pMN1 plasmid, the walking strategy was followed, after ...
