Recognition of oriT at the termination of conjugal transfer by MobA, the R1162 DNA strand transferase

R1162 is efficiently mobilized during conjugation by IncP-1 plasmids such as RK2 and R751. Transfer is terminated when the transferred strand, linearized at the 38 base-pair origin of transfer (oriT), is recircularized by the plasmid encoded protein MobA. For strand rejoining, MobA covalently link...
