Transient transcriptional activation of the Incl1 plasmid anti-restriction gene (ardA) and SOS inhibition gene (psiB) early in conjugating recipient bacteria

The ardA gene of the enterobacterial plasmid CollbP-9 acts to alleviate restriction of DNA by type I systems, while psiB inhibits induction of the bacterial SOS response. Both genes are transferred early in a round of bacterial conjugation as part of the plasmid leading region. We report here that a...
