The kinetics of plasmid conjugation for the TOL and RP4 plasmids depend strongly on the donor cells' specific growth rate and substrate concentration, both of which determine the cells' energy availability. Although transfer rates can be large when energy availability is high, normal biological processes have low energy availability. Therefore, we propose and evaluate preliminarily a simple scheme to create a small zone of high energy availability.
TOL和RP4质粒的质粒接合动力学在很大程度上取决于供体细胞的比生长速率和底物浓度,这两者都决定了细胞的能量可利用性。尽管在能量可利用性高时转移速率可能很大,但正常生物过程中的能量可利用性较低。因此,我们初步提出并评估了一个创建小的高能量可利用性区域的简单方案。
