F plasmid pif region: Tn1725 mutagenesis and polypeptide analysis.
Analysis of Tn1725 insertions in the Pif+ plasmid pRS2496 showed the maximum limits of the F pif region to be between 43.7 and 47.15 on the 100-kb map of the F plasmid. The effect of these insertions on the expression of pif polypeptides indicated that two of the pif genes, pifA and pifC, lie within a polycistronic operon.
