(12) Determination of the 5' ends of ParD transcripts, revealed that the genes coding for these proteins are transcribed from a single promoter.
(13) While the cer site did function to resolve plasmid multimers, it was not sufficient to restore stabilization activity to the parDE operon under growth conditions that require the parCBA operon for plasmid stability.
(14) The phenotype of a recently-described mutant (OV6), conditionally defective in chromosome partitioning and septal positioning, was originally thought to be due to a new gene (parD) mapping at 88.4 min.
(15) Transcriptional fusions were used to show that parA, parB, and parC are combined in an operon, while parD constitutes a separate transcription unit.
(16) The stability determined by the systems ParD of plasmid R1 and Ccd of plasmid F is due to the concerted action of two proteins, a cytotoxin and an antagonist of this function.
(17) In this paper we report that CcdA and Kis proteins, the antagonists of the Ccd and ParD systems respectively, share significant sequence homologies at both ends.
(18) The proteins P10 and P12 have been shown to be gene products of a new stability system, ParD, of plasmid R1.
(19) We have now shown that, in addition to the parD mutation, OV6 carries a gyrAam mutation and that this mutation is probably responsible for the gross phenotype of the mutant.
(20) Two divergently arranged promoters located in the intercistronic region between parC and parD mediate transcription of these genes.
