i want a precise data abt bacterial genome which consistz ov circular dna n plasmidz?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (prakharluv):

circular DNA -The DNA is arranged in a closed circle, which is negatively supercoiled allowing for the compact nature of many bacterial genomes. Plasmid · Extra-chromosomal DNA which replicates independently of the chromosome and regulates its own replication

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah datz i want

OpenStudy (anonymous):

n wat abt their sizes?

OpenStudy (prakharluv):

Plasmid sizes vary from 1 to over 1,000 kbp(kilo base pair) and for circular DNA i am somewhat doubtful

OpenStudy (prakharluv):

i think the size of circular DNA vary from 2.9 kbp to 56 kbp

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahan okay... i think circular DNA sizes are mostly in Mb

OpenStudy (prakharluv):

yeah somewhat.....:-0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm... anywayz thankz... datz a good help :)
