Complete sequence of pSC101.

A Bernardi, F Bernardi
PMCID: PMC320470  PMID: 6096829

Abstract

We have completed the pSC101 sequence. The coding capacities of the newly sequenced regions show the presence of two large open reading frames close to the oriT region. Their size and localization suggest that these polypeptide chains could be involved in the transfer process of pSC101.
