Sequence analysis of plasmid pTS1 isolated from oral spirochetes.
The naturally occurring plasmid pTS1, identified previously in several species of oral spirochetes, has now been completely sequenced. Analysis of the four open reading frames identified on the plasmid suggests the presence of genes involved in replication and mobilization.
