J. Bielecki et al., LACK OF CORRELATION BETWEEN THE PRESENCE OF 70 KB PLASMID AND PLASMID-ASSOCIATED DETERMINANTS OF YERSINIA-ENTEROCOLITICA, Microbios, 77(311), 1994, pp. 87-94
The relatedness between the plasmids from Yersinia enterocolitica 0:4.
32 and 0.9 was examined. Plasmid 0:4.32 was found in many clinical iso
lates of Y. enterocolitica and was related to pYV plasmid of Y. entero
colitica 0:9. The homology between the plasmid and chromosomal DNAs of
strains 0:4.32 and 0:9 was examined. The Ca2+-dependent expression of
the OmpF and OmpC proteins is described.
