Construction of two stable bifunctional plasmids for Streptomyces spp. and Escherichia coli

Two bifunctional plasmid vectors pZG5 (7.45 kb) and pZG6 (6.95 kb), for gene transfer between Streptomyces spp. and Escherichia coli have been constructed by fusion of the multicopy broad-host- range Streptomyces plasmid pIJ350 with E. coli plasmids Bluescribe M13− (pZG5) or pUC18 (pZG6). Both plasmids possess several unique restriction sites suitable for DNA cloning. Stable transformants of Streptomyces rimosus R6 and S. lividans 66 were obtained, harboring intact plasmids regardless of colony age or multiple subculturing. Moreover, pZG5 and pZG6 were successfully used to introduce several homologous transfer RNA genes into S. rimosus.
