Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to mutant vectors and uses thereof, more particularly, the present invention relates to broad host range RSF1010 derived Mobs that do not contain antibiotic resistance genes - plasmid. The invention also relates to bacteria comprising said plasmid and methods of using said bacteria to produce useful metabolites. Background technique
[0002] RSF1010 is a well-known IncQ group plasmid that is mobilizable but not self-transmissible and has a remarkable ability to replicate in a broad bacterial host range, including most Gram-negative bacteria (Frey, J. and Bagdasarian, M. The molecular biology of IncQ plasmamids. In: Thomas, C.M. (eds.), Promiscuous Plasmids of Gram NegativeBacteria. Academic Press, London, 1989, p.79-94). The nucleotide sequence of the RSF1010 plasmid is known (Scholz, P. et al., Gene, 75(2), 271-288 (1989); accession number GenBank M28829, gi:152577) and this plasmid has been studied very thoroughly fun...
