Abstract

A study was conducted on many catabolic plasmids often flanked by two copies of insertion sequence, IS1071, which were influenced by various xenobiotic-degrading genes. It was observed that only transposition at high frequencies was possible by IS1071 sequence and that IS1071had the functional features of the class II transposons.
