Abstract:
Two plasmids were isolated as thermosensitive replicons following in vitro mutagenesis of pB4, a pAL5000 derivative mycobacteria/Escherichia coli shuttle plasmid. Plasmids pCG59 and pCG63 replicate at 30 degrees C but not at 39 degrees C. This will allow their utilisation for transposon delivery, site-specific integration, or allele exchange.
