The stb Operon Balances the Requirements for Vegetative Stability and Conjugative Transfer of Plasmid R388
The conjugative plasmid R388 and a number of other plasmids carry an operon, stbABC, adjacent to the origin of conjugative transfer. We investigated the role of the stbA, stbB, and stbC genes. Deletion of stbA affected both conjugation and stability. It led to a 50-fold increase in R388 transfer fre...
