Region-Specific Insertion of Transposons in Combination with Selection for High Plasmid Transferability and Stability Accounts for the Structural Similarity of IncP-1 Plasmids

The overall architecture of IncP-1 plasmids is very conserved in that the accessory genes are typically located in one or two specific regions: between oriV and trfA and between the tra and trb operons. Various hypotheses have been formulated to explain this, but none have been tested experimentally...
