Ability of IncP‐9 plasmid pM3 to replicate in Escherichia coli is dependent on both rep and par functions

Abstract: Ability of IncP-9 plasmid pM3 to replicate in SummaryIncP-9 plasmids are common in Pseudomonas species and can be transferred to other Gram-negative eubacteria but tend not to be stably maintained outside their natural host genus. A 1.3 kb ori V-rep fragment from IncP-9 plasmid pM3 was sufficient for autonomous replication in Pseudomonas putida but not in Escherichia coli . Replication of ori V-rep in E. coli was restored when additional rep was provided in trans , suggesting that the replication defect result… Show more

“…IncP-9 plasmids also have this system (parABkorAparC is located on oriV-rep upstream), although detailed functional analyses have not been reported. Intriguingly, the oriV-rep system of IncP-9 cannot function in E. coli unless it is accompanied by at least part of the par region in cis (88). As for the IncP-7 plasmids, products of parWAB are essential for their maintenance, although the parS site has not been determined; and the function of ParW is still unclear (92).…”

“…IncP-9 plasmids have long been known to replicate in a wide range of bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas, but many are unstable and replication-defective at higher temperatures in other taxa such as E. coli (10). The oriV-rep fragment (oriV is located on rep upstream) of minimal replicon of the IncP-9 plasmid pMT3 is sufficient for replication in P. putida but not E. coli because of a difference in rep promoter activity between these two hosts (88). The amount of Rep protein is suggested to be important for the replication of IncP-9 plasmids (88).…”

“…The replication initiation proteins used to retrieve the plasmids and their corresponding reference plasmids were RepA from the IncA/C plasmid pRA1 (34,45), RepA from the IncL/M plasmid pCTX-M3 (52), Rep from the IncP-9 plasmid NAH7 and pWW0 (60,61), RepC from the IncQ plasmid RSF1010 (50,59), and RepB from the IncU plasmid pRA3 (41). The PromA (74) and Ri/Ti (68) plasmids used here were retrieved from the literature and include those representatives whose genome sequences were available in GenBank in July 2009.…”

“…The presence of similar cassettes carrying the regulatory korA gene nearby the partition module was also demonstrated in plasmids of the IncP-9 group (14,46) and in environmental plasmids recently defined as the PromA group, e.g., pIPO2 (50), pSB102 (45), pMOL98 (54), and pTer331 (36). This study shows that the segregation region of RA3 has a number of structural and regulatory properties that clearly distinguishes it from the equivalent regions of RK2 and R751 that have been analyzed most thoroughly.…”
