Plasmids, Recombination and Chromosome Mapping in Streptomyces lividans 66

Hopwood, D. A., Kieser, T., Wright, H. M., Bibb, M. J.·1983·Microbiology

Abstract

Streptomyces lividans 66 was shown to harbour two self-transmissible plasmids: SLP2, which acts as a sex factor, and SLP3. Derivatives of this strain which had lost both plasmids were used as host strains to study a range of Streptomyces plasmids for their ability to promote their own transfer and to mobilize chromosomal markers. A linkage map of the S. lividans chromosome containing ten markers was derived from the results of matings using several different sex plasmids, and protoplast fusions. SLP2 was transferred interspecifically to S. parvulus ATCC 12434 and to S. coelicolor A3(2); in the latter it acted as a fertility factor. Interspecific crosses also led to the discovery of a further plasmid, SLP4, from S. coelicolor, SLP2, SLP3 and SLP4 could not be visualized on agarose gels using standard plasmid isolation procedures, but their presence was detected by transformation into S. lividans.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
