Analysis of the Conjugal Transfer System of the Pheromone- Independent Highly Transferable Enterococcus Plasmid pMG1: Identification of a tra Gene (traA) Up-Regulated during Conjugation

pMG1 (65.1 kbp) is a pheromone-independent Enterococcus faecium conjugative plasmid conferring gentamicin resistance. pMG1 is able to transfer to enterococci at a high frequency in broth mating experiments, and it does not respond to the sex pheromones which are involved in the high-frequency transf...
