RESUMO
An indigenous Neisseria gonorrhoeae conjugative plasmid, pLE2450, was tested for its ability to mediate chromosomal gene transfer between gonococcal strains. Plasmid-mediated chromosomal transfer was detected at a low frequency and can be used to establish certain linkage relationships between amino acid and antibiotic resistance markers.
