Abstract excerpt
The plasmid content of an environmental mycobacterium (MorG) which degrades morpholine (Mor+ phenotype) was investigated. The combination, in what appears to be a novel way, of restriction endonuclease digestion, gel electrophoresis and scanning densitometry permitted the resolution of mixed plasmid preparations into four distinct plasmids with sizes of 54 (approximately), 27.7, 22.8 and 22.6 kb. These plasmids...
