Plasmids are extrachromosomal genetic materials that are generally referred to as autonomously replicating double-stranded, circular or linear DNA molecules44. About 25% of red algal genera contain more than two plasmids per species, and encode open reading frames (ORFs) that are transcriptionally activ...

16. In certain plasmids, these genes are expressed early on entry into the recipient cell17,18,19, preceding the conversion of the entering single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) into double-stranded DNA (dsDNA)20. The regulation of some of these genes involves unique promoters...

Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis: a simple method using two oligonucleotide primers and a single-stranded DNA template. This paper presents a simple and efficient method for oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis using vectors derived from single-stranded phage. This modification of our previously published...
One strand of the double stranded plasmid is cut, then transmitted from the donor to the recipient through the pilus. Complementary strands for the single strands remaining in the donor and recipient are created, hence both bacteria now have a copy of the original plasmid. The pilus is removed...
In the first step, synthesis of the complementary strand converts the single-stranded viral DNA into a double-stranded replicative form (RF). Viral or (+)-strand DNA replication in the second step is initiated by the introduction of a specific nick on the (+) strand of the RF molecule ...

After that, they were discovered in almost every single observed strain. The structure of plasmids is made of circular double chain DNA molecules which are replicated autonomously in a host cell. Their length may vary from few up to several hundred kilobase (kb). Among the bacteria, plasmids ...
