Enterococcus faecalis plasmid pBEM10 (a conjugative plasmid encoding beta-lactamase production and gentamicin resistance [Gmr]) was made transfer deficient by using Tn917. Relocation of the Gmr determinant into two sites on pCF10 was observed. Restriction analysis revealed insertion of a common 2.5-kilobase-pair HindIII and a 3.9-kilobase-pair HaeIII fragment encoding Gmr, suggesting that this determinant resides on a transposon similar to Tn4001.
粪肠球菌质粒pBEM10(一种编码β-内酰胺酶产生和庆大霉素抗性[Gmr]的接合性质粒)通过使用Tn917使其转移缺陷。观察到Gmr决定簇重新定位到pCF10上的两个位点。限制性分析显示插入了一个常见的2.5千碱基对的HindIII片段和一个3.9千碱基对的编码Gmr的HaeIII片段,这表明该决定簇位于一个类似于Tn4001的转座子上。
