Stability by multimer resolution of pJHCMW1 is due to the Tn1331 resolvase and not to the Escherichia coli Xer system.

Abstract:

The plasmid pJHCMW1 encodes resistance to several aminoglycosides and beta-lactams and consists of a copy of the transposon Tn1331, a region including the replication functions, and a sequence with homology to ColE1 cer, designated mwr. In this work, the role of this cer-like site in ensuring the stable inheritance of pJHCMW1 by multimer resolution was studied. The Escherichia coli Xer site-specific recombination system acts at sites such as ColE1 cer to resolve plasmid multimers formed by ho...
