Abstract
A comparison of the conjugation systems of F plasmid from Escherichia coli and plasmid pCF10 from Enterococcus faecalis using data from the aggregation-mediated conjugation system encoded from Bacillus thuringiensis' pXO16 reveals a number of common characteristics despite the obvious basic differences. One common characteristic shared by the two plasmids include their ability to sustain highly efficient conjugative transfers in a liquid environment.
