摘要

Staphylococcal plasmids of the pT181 family replicate by a rolling circle mechanism, requiring the activities of a plasmid-specified Rep protein. The initiation event involves site-specific phosphodiester bond cleavage by Rep within the replication origin, ori. In vitro the Rep proteins also display type-I topoisomerase activity specific for this plasmid family Although the single site of bond cleavage, ICR II, is conserved among all members of the pT181 family, the plasmid-specific Rep proteins are able to discriminate between family members in vivo, initiating replication only from the cognate origin. The basis of such specificity is believed to be due to a non-covalent binding interaction between Rep and a DNA sequence adjacent to the site of phosphodiester bond cleavage.
