Replication of pJlacS in S. acidocaldarius (A) Southern blot (SacI) of plasmid pJlacS from E. coli, MR31 transformed with pJlacS and untransformed MR31 (−c). The pRN1 specific probe detects the 3.7-kb restriction fragment, the lacS probe detects the 7.3-kb fragment. (B) Retransformation of pJlacS (SacI), +c: pJlacS from E. coli, 1,2,3: retransformants. (C) X-gal test with untransformed MR31 and MR31 transformed with pJlacS (10 min at 75°C). (D) Growth curves for MR31 transformed with pJ (control) and with pJlacS. (E) Reporter gene experiment showing copy numbers of pJlacS per cell and the corresponding β-galactosidase activities.
