A palindromic mutation of the linear killer plasmid k2 of yeast.

Nucleic acids research - 25 Aug 1990

Wésolowski-Louvel M, Fukuhara H

Abstract excerpt

Production of the killer toxin in Kluyveromyces lactis is dependent on the presence of two linear DNA plasmids, k1 and k2. We isolated a non-killer mutant, VM5, with a modified plasmid composition. It had lost k1, but conserved k2, and acquired, in addition, three new DNA species. The new species were found to be rearranged derivatives of the k2 plasmid. One of them, pVM5-1, was made of the left terminal 4720 bp...
