Transcriptional analysis of rolling circle replicating plasmid pVT736-1: evidence for replication control by antisense RNA.
Several plasmids have been described in Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, a gram-negative coccobacillus. Recently, the nucleotide sequence of pVT736-1, a cryptic plasmid of A. actinomycetemcomitans VT736, was determined. This plasmid possesses all the features necessary for rolling circle replication. The present study involved a transcriptional analysis of pVT736-1. Results of Northern (RN...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of the rolling-circle replicating plasmid pA1 of Lactobacillus plantarum A112.
Lactobacillus plantarum A112 has four different plasmids. Plus-origin-specific probes were used to determine that the smallest, cryptic plasmid, pA1 (2,820 bp), showed homology to the pE194 plasmid family. This subclass of plasmids uses the rolling-circle mode of replication. Subsequent analysis of plasmid pA1 demonstrated that it generates single-stranded DNA intermediates, and sequence analys...
متن کاملRolling-circle plasmid pKYM re-initiates DNA replication.
It is believed that rolling-circle plasmids are incapable of re-initiation since they have to maintain their copy number and this is one of the differences between plasmids and phages as phi-x174. To examine whether a rolling-circle plasmid pKYM is incapable of re-initiating DNA replication, we constructed a plasmid that carries both the pKYM origin (fragment 13, 173 bp) and its truncated origi...
متن کاملEvidence for rolling circle replication of tandem genes in Drosophila
Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) is one characteristic of the plasticity of the eukaryotic genome. It is found in various organisms and contains sequences derived primarily from repetitive chromosomal DNA. Using 2D gel electrophoresis, we have previously detected eccDNA composed of chromosomal tandem repeats throughout the life cycle of Drosophila. Here, we report for the first time evide...
متن کاملRolling-circle replication of an animal circovirus genome in a theta-replicating bacterial plasmid in Escherichia coli.
A bacterial plasmid containing 1.75 copies of double-stranded porcine circovirus (PCV) DNA in tandem (0.8 copy of PCV type 1 [PCV1], 0.95 copy of PCV2) with two origins of DNA replication (Ori) yielded three different DNA species when transformed into Escherichia coli: the input construct, a unit-length chimeric PCV1(Rep)/PCV2(Cap) genome with a composite Ori but lacking the plasmid vector, and...
