Notes:
We report here the construction of a promoter-probe vector, pRS2, which can be utilized in either Acetobacter methanolicus MB 58 or Escherichia coli due to the presence of broad-host-range replicon RSF 1010. The vector provides several unique restriction sites for promoter cloning as well as resistance markers for the selection of transformants. The promoter-probe vector was constructed by inserting an EcoRI-SalI-polylinker fragment of pUC 19 into EcoRI/SalI digested pMK 16. The resulting plasmid, pRS1, was cloned into the unique EcoRI site of the broad-host-range plasmid RSF 1010.The vector was used to clone promoter-containing sequences derived from the A. methanolicus MB 58 chromosome as well as the E. coli lac-promoter.
