pneumophila to act as a recipient of IncP and IncQ plasmids in matings with Escherichia coli varies widely from strain to strain. We found that the low efficiency of mating of the Philadelphia-1 strain is due to a type II
restriction-modification system
, and we isolated and characterized a Philadelphia-1 mutant that lacks the restriction enzyme activity.
