Résumé

Caulobacter is a well-studied bacterial genus, but little is known about the plasmids that are found in some wild Caulobacter isolates. We used bioinformatic approaches to identify nine plasmids from seven different Caulobacter strains and grouped them based on their size and the similarity of their repABC, parAB, and mobAB genes. Protein pathway analysis of the genes on the K31p1 and K31p2 plasmids showed many metabolic pathways that would enhance the metabolic versatility of the host strain. In contrast, the CB4 plasmid contained 21 heavy metal resistance genes with the majority coding for proteins that enhance copper resistance. Growth assays of C. henricii CB4 demonstrated increased copper resistance and quantitative PCR showed an increase in the expression of eight heavy metal genes when induced with copper.
