Insertion of foreign functioning DNA into the Bacillus subtilis chromosome. 1983

A A Prozorov, and G V Savchenko, and N M Lakomova, and E U Poluektova

Following the restriction and ligation of pBD12 plasmid and phi 105 phage DNA and subsequent transformation, the insertion of pBD12 DNA into the phi 105 prophage region of the Bacillus subtilis chromosome was achieved. The plasmid markers were linked with the region of prophage immunity and with the markers of the adjacent region of the B. subtilis chromosome. Their behaviour in transformation of cells and protoplasts of rec+ recipients and recE4 mutants was typical of chromosomal markers. The phenotypic expression (resistance to chloramphenicol and kanamycin) of plasmid genes inserted into the chromosome was preserved; however, the resistance levels were reduced.

D008040 Genetic Linkage The co-inheritance of two or more non-allelic GENES due to their being located more or less closely on the same CHROMOSOME. Genetic Linkage Analysis,Linkage, Genetic,Analyses, Genetic Linkage,Analysis, Genetic Linkage,Genetic Linkage Analyses,Linkage Analyses, Genetic,Linkage Analysis, Genetic
D010957 Plasmids Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D002701 Chloramphenicol An antibiotic first isolated from cultures of Streptomyces venequelae in 1947 but now produced synthetically. It has a relatively simple structure and was the first broad-spectrum antibiotic to be discovered. It acts by interfering with bacterial protein synthesis and is mainly bacteriostatic. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 29th ed, p106) Cloranfenicol,Kloramfenikol,Levomycetin,Amphenicol,Amphenicols,Chlornitromycin,Chlorocid,Chloromycetin,Detreomycin,Ophthochlor,Syntomycin
