Identification of a Single Strand Origin of Replication in the Integrative and Conjugative Element ICEBs1 of Bacillus subtilis.

We identified a functional single strand origin of replication (sso) in the integrative and conjugative element ICEBs1 of Bacillus subtilis. Integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs, also known as conjugative transposons) are DNA elements typically found integrated into a bacterial chromosome wher...
