Transformation procedure based on simultaneous integration of the plasmids pAL-HPH-phbA-phbB and pAL-ALEU2m-phbC into the 25S rDNA of A. adeninivorans G1211 (aleu2). The two plasmids pAL-HPH-phbA-phbB and pAL-ALEU2m-phbC containing the expression cassettes with phbA, phbB and phbC genes are linearised by BglII or Esp3I digestion, respectively. The resulting fragments flanked by 25S rDNA sequences are co-integrated into the 25S rDNA by homologous recombination. Transformants are selected either by resistance to hygromycin B (plasmid pAL-HPH-phbA-phbB [25,44]) or the complementation of the aleu2 mutation (plasmid pAL-ALEU2m-phbC [20]).
