Abstract
The 47-kbp plasmid pGFT1 from Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Dublin mediated tetracycline resistance via a tet (A) gene located on an integrated copy of a Tn 1721 -analogous transposon. The integration site of the transposon was located within the reading frame of a fip gene. Plasmid pGFT1 was shown to be conjugative and to be able to replicate and express tetracycline resistance in Escherichia coli.Keywords
