F-like plasmids pAP19-1::Tn9, pAP20::Tn9, pAP22-1::Tn1, pAP27 characterized by the presence of unique genetic plasmid transfer regulatory systems in their genomes have been found. These systems were named fin K, fin L, fin M, finN, consequently. They were characterized from the point of view of specificity of their action on F-factor and F-like conjugative function. Dependence of fin N-system expression on host-cell and on the order of plasmid entering into host-cell was shown.
