Molecular analysis of the replication functions of the bifidobacterial conjugative megaplasmid pMP7017
Summary pMP7017 is a conjugative megaplasmid isolated from the gut commensal Bifidobacterium breve JCM7017 and was shown to encode two putative replicases, designated here as RepA and RepB. In the current work, RepB was identified as the pMP7017 replicative initiator, as the repB gene, and its surro...
