Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli hosts were constructed for maintenance of vectors containing the gamma replication origin of the R6K plasmid (oriRR6K gamma) at different copy numbers (15 or 250/cell). Such vectors require the trans-acting II protein (the pir gene product) for replication. New hosts carry pir+ or pir-116 on the chromosome within uidA, the E. coli gene encoding beta-glucuronidase. They were made using the rep...
