abstract：:A cryptic plasmid from Arthrobacter rhombi PRH1, designated as pPRH, was sequenced and characterized. It was 5000 bp in length with a G+C content of 66 mol%. The plasmid pPRH was predicted to encode six putative open reading frames (ORFs), in which ORF2 and ORF3 formed the minimal replicon of plasmid pPRH and shared 5...
