Genes involved in production of plasmidlike forms by a Bacteroides conjugal chromosomal element share amino acid homology with two-component regulatory systems.

Many human colonic Bacteroides strains carry large (greater than 70-kbp) self-transmissible chromosomal tetracycline resistance (Tcr) elements. These Tcr elements can also mediate the excision and circularization of discrete nonadjacent segments of chromosomal DNA which are designated NBUs (nonrepli...
