Abstract excerpt
The generalized transducing bacteriophage of Salmonella typhimurium, P22, can transduce plasmids in addition to chromosomal markers. Previous studies have concentrated on transduction of pBR322 by P22 and P22HT, the high transducing mutant of P22. This study investigates the mechanism of P22HT transduction of low-copy number plasmids, namely pSC101 derivatives. We show that P22HT transduces pSC101 derivatives...
