Identification of a Sex-factor-affinity Site in E. coli as

Abstract

Many conjugative bacterial plasmids are capable of promoting the conjugal transfer of normally physically unlinked replicons, including the main bacterial chromosome (for review, see Holloway 1979). Such behavior has been termed mobilization (Novick et al. 1976) or conduction (Clark and Adelberg 1962; Clark and Warren 1979). One model proposed to describe at least some such interactions involves recombination between regions of extensive nucleotide sequence homology on both the conjugative and nonconjugative replicons (Clark and Warren 1979). Such recombination-mediated processes occur in the cases of some experimentally altered plasmids (Wilkins 1969; Kleckner et al. 1977; Barth 1979).

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.
