Abstract: | A number of hybrid plasmids which can autonomously replicate in E. coli, B. subtilis and S. cerevisiae was constructed. Replication of these plasmids both in yeast and in B. subtilis starts on a sequences originating from Staphylococcus aureus plasmids pC194 and pE194. In yeast these hybrids are unstable like those yeast vectors which contain eukaryotic ARSs, but their stability has been increased by addition of yeast centromeric sequence. Both pC194 and pE194 DNAs contain sequences which reveal strong similarities with the yeast ARS consensus. Nevertheless the replication efficiences of these plasmids in yeast are different. |
