Single-stranded circular DNA generated from broad host range plasmid R1162 and its derivatives.
Extraction of R1162 plasmid DNA with the alkaline lysis method yields considerable amounts of single-stranded circular plasmid DNA. Destabilization of plasmid DNA is stimulated by the R1162 mob region in cis. The formation of single-stranded circular DNA is initiated at a specific site on the plasmid, presumably the origin of transfer (oriT).
