Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)
The miniR1-(Rsc)-plasmids which derive from the copy mutant R1drd-19B2 (pKN102) are non-conjugative extrachromosomal elements which can not be co-transferred by various transfer factors to recipient strains under standard mating conditions. The attempts to mobilize Rsc11 by F'lac lead to transconjugants carrying F'lac::Tn3 with Tn3 mainly inserted into the lac operon. In addition it can be shown that Rsc11 can become inserted as a complete unit into the transfer factor giving rise to rather unstable recombinant intermediates. Dissociation of these intermediates may lead to alterations of the original plasmids. The Tn3 part of Rsc13 can be enlarged or deleted by in vitro manipulations. In vitro insertion of EcoRI-fragments into an EcoRI+ site of Tn3 leads to new transposable units which can be transposed to the RTF part of R1. This new genetic entity can be stably integrated into the chromosome of E. coli by integrative suppression of a dnaAts-mutation. Deletions at one end or the central region of Tn3 abolish the capability of transposition. However, the Rsc-plasmids containing the deleted Tn3 can still be inserted into the transfer factor as complete units. The resulting recombinants are unstable leading after dissociation in some cases to new plasmids with altered properties.
