Evolving origin-of-transfer sequences on staphylococcal conjugative and mobilizable plasmids - Who's mimicking whom?

Evolving origin-of-transfer sequences on staphylococcal conjugative and mobilizable plasmids - Who's mimicking whom?

In Staphylococcus aureus, most multiresistance plasmids lack conjugation or mobilization genes for horizontal transfer. However, most are mobilizable due to carriage of origin-of-transfer (oriT) sequences mimicking those of conjugative plasmids related to pWBG749. pWBG749-family plasmids have diverg...
