Transfer of a genetic marker from a megaplasmid of Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 to a megaplasmid of a different Anabaena strain

Muro Pastor, Alicia María Kuritz, Tanya Flores García, Enrique

The 410-kb α megaplasmid of the heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 was found to bear the nucA gene that encodes a sugar-nonspecific nuclease. That gene was mutated by insertion of a cassette that confers resistance to neomycin. The resulting strain, AMP2, was mated with a streptomycin-resistant derivative of Anabaena...
