A DNA ministring.
Temperature induced, in vivo expression of Tel protelomerases and their subsequent enzymatic activity, for excision and resolution of covalently closed terminal ends, result in the conversion of parental CCC pDNA into two smaller species: 1) a LCC backbone DNA carrying the unnecessary prokaryotic backbone, and 2) a LCC DNA minivector referred to as DNA ministrings.
