The replication protein RepB for the broad-host-range plasmid pBBR1 does not originate from an organism but is instead a synthetic or engineered protein specifically designed for the plasmid. The pBBR1 plasmid is a laboratory construct, and its replication protein RepB is not derived from a naturally occurring organism. It is engineered to work effectively in a wide range of bacterial hosts, which is why it is referred to as a "broad-host-range" plasmid. Researchers have designed RepB to initiate and control replication within the plasmid, enabling it to replicate autonomously in different bacterial species.
