Transposition frequency of ISPpu9 in different genetic backgrounds. (A) Representation of plasmid pKN-ISPpu9Km, which contains the complete ISPpu9 insertion sequence and a kanamycin-resistant determinant inserted downstream of the tnp gene. Asr9 is represented in red, while Ssr9 is depicted in blue. (B and C) The pKN-ISPpu9Km suicide delivery plasmid, or its derivative lacking ssr9 (pKN-ISPpu9KmΔssr9), were transferred by conjugation into strains KT2440 or F1, as specified in Materials and Methods section; the number of transposition events per recipient is indicated. (D and E) Plasmids pSEVA225T (control for conjugation; D) and plasmid pUT-Mini-Tn5Km (control for transposition; E) were transferred to strains KT2440 and F1 using the same procedure. Values are the average of five independent assays.
