Replaced blower fan resistor today without removing dash. Dealer wanted 10 hours labor to replace resistor. Took me two hours, next one could do in hour. 4 of 5 fan screws you can get to without problems. For 5th screw which requires removal of dash, I just pulled fan down and mount broke right off.
1 Answer 1. If I understand the nomenclature correctly, an R plasmid is just any plasmid containing an antibiotic (R)esistance gene (eg. Amp, Kan, Cm, etc.). It's a bit of an outdated name from when people didn't know how exactly the plasmids conferred such resistance.
Plasmids. Plasmids are extra-chromosomal DNA molecules that can replicate in a cell separately from the chromosome. Frequently, plasmids have accessory genes that encode functions beneficial to the host cell. They are important for understanding how genes can be moved about between different bacteria and what that means for us. Originally identified in bacteria, plasmids have also been found in yeasts and other fungi. Most bacterial plasmids are circular, although some are linear, and they require at least an origin of replication to be maintained in the cell.
