Abstract excerpt
Transformation of a Mucor circinelloides Leu- strain with the plasmid pAD45, harbouring the wild-type allele (leuA+) and a chymosin gene, led to the identification of mitotically stable transformants after one to three vegetative growth cycles on non-selective medium. Southern analysis of the stable transformed strains demonstrated that the vector is integrated, as an intact molecule, into the resident Mucor leuA...
