“…There is evidence [1,4] suggesting the presence of new fin systems in plasmid genomes in addition to the known systems regulating genetic plasmid transfer (fin OP, Q, U, V, W, and C).…”
Study of the capacity of various repressed plasmids to inhibit derepressed plasmid transfer revealed new systems regulating conjugation plasmid transfer. These systems were denoted Fin A, fin B, fin D, fin E, and fin F.

The fro-systems finV and fmU in cointegrative plasmids are shown to produce a much stronger transfer-inhibitory effect as compared to the sum of effects produced by FinU (in transfer factor pAP42) and FinV (in nonconjugative plasmids pRSF2124 and pUB781) separately.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
