Global features of sequences of bacterial chromosomes, plasmids and phages revealed by analysis of oligonucleotide usage patterns

Oligonucleotide frequencies were shown to be conserved signatures for bacterial genomes, however, the underlying constraints have yet not been resolved in detail. In this paper we analyzed oligonuc...

Plasmid pBP136 from Bordetella pertussis represents an ancestral form of IncP-1 beta plasmids without accessory mobile elements

The complete 41 268 bp nucleotide sequence of the IncP-1 beta plasmid pBP136 from the human pathogen Bordetella pertussis, the primary aetiological agent of whooping cough, was determined and analy...
