A nick-labeling method has been used to localize the relaxation complex nick sites in three plasmids (pSC101, RSF1010, and R6K) that differ markedly in their host range, deoxyribonucleic acid replication, and conjugal transfer properties. Single specific relaxation sites were located in pSC101 and RSF1010, but surprisingly two distinct sites could be identified in the bi-origin plasmid R6K. In all cases, relaxation nick sites, which are thought to be origins of plasmid conjugal transfer, were shown to be located near origins of vegetative replication. This result suggests a functional interaction between these two types of deoxyribonucleic acid loci, and we speculate here that application events initiated at origins of replication may constitute an integral part of the process of conjugal transfer of small plasmids among bacteria. Consistent with this proposal is the finding that inhibition of vegetative replication of the pSC101 and ColE1 plasmids results in a severe inhibition of their conjugal transfer ability.

Location of two relaxation nick sites in R6K and single sites in pSC101 and RSF1010 close to origins of vegetative replication: implication for conjugal transfer of plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid
