[Activity of restriction endonuclease Sso II in Escherichia coli strains transformed by Shigella sonnei 47 plasmids].
The inverse dependence of activity of restriction endonuclease SsoII preparations on the number of low molecular mass plasmids of Shigella sonnei transforming Escherichia coli recipient cells producing the enzyme has been shown. Escherichia coli strain producing efficiently one of two Shigella sonnei 47 restriction endonucleases SsoII has been isolated. The producer strain harbours two of the nine Shigella sonnei 47 plasmids. One of them P4 codes for SsoII+ phenotype while the other P9 determines the plasmids conjugation transfer. Biochemical and physiological characteristics of the producer strain XS13 are identical to the ones of the recipient Escherichia coli strain PS200. XS13 is unable to induce keratoconjunctivitis in guinea pigs in pathogenicity test.
