The conjugation system of staphylococcus aureus
- Abstract:
-
A conjugation system in Staphylococcus aureus has been investigated and shown to be determined, at least in part, by genes carried on plasmids. Conjugation required cell-to-cell contact but not calcium ions. The frequency of conjugation depended on the recipient used and on the incubation conditions.
Two conjugative plasmids were mapped by restriction enzyme analysis but experiments to clone the conjugation-determining region were unsuccessful although separate regions spec...
