[图书][B] The role of F plasmid relaxosome protein binding sites and intervening origin of transfer (oriT) regions in bacterial conjugation

SL Williams - 2008 - search.proquest.com
Bacterial conjugation is the transfer of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) from one bacterium to
another. The initiation of transfer requires a complex of proteins called the relaxosome. The …
