Abstract

Escherichia coli F plasmid partition apparatus is composed of two trans-acting proteins (SopA and SopB) and one cis-acting DNA sequence (sopC). The SopB-sopC complex has been suggested to serve a centromere-like function through its interaction with chromosomally encoded proteins which remain to be identified. In this paper, we are introducing a new yeast 1.5-hybrid system which assembles the two-hybrid and one-hybrid system as a mean to find and additional component of the F plasmid partition system, interacting with DNA (sopC)-bound SopB protein. The results indicates that this system is a promising one, capable of selecting an interacting component.
