특이 단백질(gene II protein)의 정성적 또는 정량적 변화에 의해 DNA 복제에 필요한 replication orgin sequence의 일부분이었단 replication enhancer를 불필요하게 함으로써 minimum replication origin을 core region만으로 국한 되게 함이었다.

Enterococcus faecalis KBL703 has three plasmids(p703/9, p703/5 and p703/4). Within p703/5, the specific DNA region that would confer replication function(replication origin) was searched by transformation experiments. In order to use as the recipient of transformation, two plasmid-cured strainsd were made from this strain. Four recombinant DNA constructs, each containing fragment of p703/5 and CAT(chloramphenicol acetyl transferase) gene were also made. And they were used to transform the plasmid-cured strains. Only one DNA construct containing 3.6 kb SalI fragment was stably maintained as plasmid in these strains. Additional experiment using another Enterococcus faecalis strain(ATCC29212) as a recipient was successfully done and it was confirmed that this newly constructed recombinant plasmid plasimid contained the replication origin from p703/5 plamid.
