Abstract: | Summary An Escherichia coli-Streptomyces shuttle plasmid pIF132 containing two direct mel repeats was constructed. While pIF132 replicated relatively stably in E. coli (Rec+ or recA), its structure was unstable in S. lividans: recombination between the mel repeats resulted in a smaller plasmid, pIF138. Furthermore, pIF132 formed oligomers extensively in E. coli but not in S. lividans. |
