The carbazole-degradative plasmid pCAR2 was isolated from Pseudomonas putida and
had a genetic structure similar to that of pCAR1, the IncP-7 archetype plasmid. Mating …

The transfer of the IncP-7 carbazole degradative plasmid pCAR1 from Pseudomonas putida
SM1443 (derived from strain KT2440) into bacteria of river water samples was monitored …

Accepted November 11, 2009; Online Publication, February 7, 2010 [doi: 10.1271/bbb.
90675] pCAR1 endows carbazole-degrading ability on its host. Three different host …

The conjugative transfer ranges of three different plasmids of the incompatibility groups IncP-
1 (pBP136), IncP-7 (pCAR1), and IncP-9 (NAH7) were investigated in soil bacterial …

The incompatibility (Inc) P-7 group plasmid pCAR1 can be efficiently transferred among
bacteria in artificial microcosms in the presence of divalent cations Ca2+ and Mg2+. One-on …

Pseudomonas putida G7 carries a naphthalene-catabolic and self-transmissible plasmid,
NAH7, which belongs to the IncP-9 incompatibility group. Adjacent to the putative origin of …

IncP-1 plasmids are known to be promiscuous, but it is not understood if they are equally
well adapted to various species within their host range. Moreover, little is known about their …

Isolated from Pseudomonas resinovorans CA10, pCAR1 is a 199-kb plasmid that carries
genes involved in the degradation of carbazole and dioxin. The nucleotide sequence of …

We determined the effect of the host on the function and structure of the nearly identical IncP-
7 carbazole-degradative plasmids pCAR1. 1 and pCAR1. 2. We constructed Pseudomonas …

In artificial environmental samples, the behavior of the IncP-7 conjugative plasmid pCAR1,
which is involved in the catabolism of carbazole, was monitored. Sterile soil and water …
