DNA synthesis of broad host-range plasmid R1162 is initiated from two positions, flanking a large (40 bp stem, 40 bp loop) inverted repeat. Each start-point is located within a highly conserved, but oppositely oriented, 10 base-pair sequence. Synthesis from the two positions converges within the intervening inverted repeat. An analysis of deletions suggests that both start positions must be present for synthesis. A model describing possible early events in replication of plasmid R1162 is presented.
