[Inheritance and expression of cholera toxin genes introduced into Vibrio cholerae el tor cells in a hybrid plasmid].
Two replicons, pOX38 (in F-factor derivative lacking all IS elements) and pCT105 (containing cholera toxin operon cloned in pBR322) have been fused to produce recombinant plasmid, pCO109, which was then introduced into Vibrio cholerae eltor by conjugation. Restriction analysis showed pCO109 to dissociate in V. cholerae cells at a higher frequency than in Escherichia coli strains, its pOX38 component being lost, while the pCT105 component demonstrated relative stability. V. cholerae eltor RV79 (pCT105) produced 4-5 micrograms/ml of cholera toxin. Occasional insertion of cloned vctA, B operon into RV79 chromosome was also observed.
